Jace grabbed a glove, and he and Max had a pickup tball game. The kids in my class are so cute! I'm really glad they are all such good friends and play so well together.

Book: Mouse’s First Halloween by Lauren Thompson
Book: If You Give a Mouse a Cookie by Laura Numeroff
Book: Mouse Count, Mouse Paint, and Mouse Shapes by Ellen Stoll Walsh
In Mouse Count, a greedy, hungry and sneaky snake takes juicy, warm, tasty and sleepy mice and counts them one to ten into a jar. Thankfully, one mouse wakes up, and tricks the snake, who leaves momentarily. The mice rock the jar from side to side to escape the greedy snake. As they escape the jar, they uncounted themselves. Fun way to count!!
Dramatic Play: Dress Up! At various times, today, we had a bride, Sleeping beauty, a fairy, a doctor, a farmer, a super hero, a giant lizard (wearing a blue tutu and sunglasses), a construction worker, Tiana, Snow White, Grandpa, and Aniken Skywalker in our class.

Practical Life: Real vs Pretend
Can mice really talk? What parts of the books we read today were real, and what parts were make believe? I always like to cover this topic in October, when the children start to notice dressed up characters and fictional characters (witches, ghots, pumpkins that sing, etc).
Music & Movement: Practice Halloween Songs (5 Little Pumpkins Poem, 10 Little Ghosts, The Leaves on the Trees)
