Halloween Day 2011

Halloween fell on a Monday this year and it was our "M" week so I just couldn't help but have a little fun with it!  The entire day was devote to Marvelous Monday Halloween fun!  We started by doing a simple but fun art project.  I don't like scary things so we made a spider and his web!  First, we made our handprint spider!

Next we made our web.  Since it was "M" week, we dipped Marbles in white paint and rolled it around on a black piece of construction paper.  The class loved doing this!  I told them they had to be careful and patient so the marbles wouldn't jump off the paper.

The little spider was glued on and we had the perfect Halloween artwork!

We quickly headed to the kitchen for some Halloween cooking and science fun!  Since our art project was a spider, we had to make a spider cookie!  Unfortunately, I didn't have any chocolate frosting (opps!) so we made Multi-colored spiders!  Some were pink, some were blue and we even had some yellow ones!  No matter what they color, they were fun and yummy!


Our science experiment was super fun!  Everyone received an empty water bottle.  We put one squirt of yellow paint in it -
then a squirt of red paint -

then a little drop of rubbing alcohol - 

Can you see the two colors starting to mix?
Next came the fun part -
SHAKE IT BABY, SHAKE IT!

Making the orange paint was fun but then we grabbed the bottles and headed to our big Music/Spanish Room for some bowling!  We lined up all the bottles and used them for bowling pins!  Halloween bowling fun!

All in all, it was a Magically, Marvelous Monday!
