What a Character!…..Character Pumpkin Project

Oh.My.Goodness….You have to check out these pumpkins.  Yesterday was the day that the character pumpkins were due.  We finished writing our character descriptions and set them all up for display.  Other classes, parents, and administration came to tour our amazingness.  I was blown away by the creativity.  I love projects like this because even the kiddos who chose the same character did it so differently.

I love them all!  I will for sure be doing this project again next year.  The kids loved it and I even had a few parents tell me that it was a pretty easy and inexpensive project!

In case you missed the free download, here is the link one more time.  You can download it and hang on to it for next year!

I have said for years now that the day after Halloween should be a day off from school.  With the sugar comas and lack of sleep it makes for a pretty unproductive day.  Well, it seems that someone high up half listened to me, because today is a half day for us.  We are sending the kiddos home at lunch time today. So, no checking lunch boxes for tons of smuggled candy!  Yea for half days!  Hope everyone in teacher blog land survives the sugar crash!

Have a great day!
