Witches, Cowboys and Vampires, Oh My!

Halloween started off with a parade. Our principal, assistant principal and counselor all dressed up as bees. The Three B's...to be exact...Bee respectful, Bee responsible and bee safe. Awesome. Wish I'd gotten a photo!













After the parade, we had a class party. Kids brought lots of yummy treats, but fortunately there weren't any tricks. :)






We played a game of Boo Bingo. Students made cute pumpkin books and wrote Halloween stories. It was a fun Halloween.

Best of all? No homework that night!

Fascinating Fact Friday: Woodpeckers

Did you know that woodpeckers have incredibly long tongues? They stick their tongues into the holes they have pecked in trees in order to reach insects. Their tongue actually curves around their skull and is connected to the base of their beak! Wow!
