Today was a day for getting stuff done!
Teaching:
We designed monsters this morning in our journals. They turned out super cute and the kids did lots of writing about them. 
We also began our pumpkin investigation- discussing ribs and drawing like a scientist.
This afternoon we tackled a mini book about the pumpkin life cycle.
It’s fun this year to be able to do Halloween things!
Movie:
After work I had some bonus time as my massage was cancelled so I watched some of the Hallmark movie, Love at First Dance. I’m not quite down so I hope to finish it in the morning.
Shopping:
I went out and got gas and picked up glow in the dark fangs for my students for Halloween. I just can’t bring myself to give them candy!
Exercise:
I decided to take advantage of the no massage and get my first points for Squad Runner in two weeks! I just did a quick 5km in the Neighbourhood. It wasn’t fast, but it did feel great to get out!
Knitting:
I’ve been working yet again on my shawl/scarf. It still doesn’t seem to be getting any bigger:(
I will keep knitting though!
Have fun!

Excellent school activities!
Thanks
You are welcome.
It’s probably a good idea to not give the kids candy! Especially with so many allergies now you can never be sure what is/isn’t safe. Woohoo for a 5k! Just need to build back up after being sick and you’ll be back to your routine in no time
Yes I just don’t think candy is the best option!
I’m hoping this week to get back to routine:)
I think you’ll be able to get back into it!
I sure hope so!
You will get to the end of the scarf, by the end of the year I’d guess! LOL!!!
Ugh that seems forever away!!!
Glad you are feeling good again and up to running. I want Zach t start again even though it is cold in Chicago now
The running definitely helps me be a better teacher. It felt great to get out last night!
Pumpkin life cycles…those vines can grow a foot in a day I think!
Yes we want to grow some next year!
Love the idea of glow and the dark fangs, and I am sure the parents will be grateful for one less sugar treat 🙂
Yes the kids will definitely get enough of those!
The pumpkin investigation sound like fun.
I sure hope so!
The glow in the dark fangs sound like fun – the kids are going to be excited!
I hope so! It seemed a better option than candy!
Yup, no excitability factor from alot of sugar, just the glow in the dark fangs – you are a smart cookie!
Lol I try to be!
aw those little journals are tooo cute!! Always love seeing your fun, creative assignments
Thanks! The kids did a really good job!
