Cranking it up Halloween style with Crankenstein!!!!

Hey Y’all!!! J

It’s Friday!!!!

I can honestly say I was saying TGIF A LOT today!!!!!

Halloween AND a full moon is not a good mix for little kiddos!!!!!

Pretty funny it is world teacher day today as well - defiantly used my teacher patience today of all days!!! 

BUT like always I LOVE my job very much and wouldn't trade it for any other!!! :)

Onto this week ..... 

Although Halloween is not as big over here in Australia, and working at a catholic school does make it a lot trickier I still wanted my class to join in a little fun of the event so this week we did some activities from Amy Lemon’s and Katie King’s ‘Rooted In Reading’ unit.

We read the story Frankenstein Crankenstein which I just LOVED!!!!! It was also a hit with the kids for sure!!!

Then we made some inferences about what made him happy and what made him cranky.

Afterwards we started our Crankenstein guided drawings which the class really enjoyed - I am usually a just draw your own type of teacher but they really enjoyed being shown how to draw this and I think it showed some of them they have the potential to draw well if they focused on what they are doing!!!





After this we described Crankenstein’s character traits and searched for evidence in the text to back up what we thought. 







Well I am off to watch god old Harry Potter!!! ;)

Have a 'spooktacular' weekend!!! :)
