Trick-or-treat!

For Halloween our school put on a huge party for all of our kids- and it was a blast! We stayed up until midnight Thursday decorating the school- and for Lindsay, Shannon, Lisa and I- our Haunted Houses that took up two rooms. The Halloween party was divided up into three segments- with the youngest attending in the morning- and I took them trick-or-treating. With the middle group, we made ghost lollipops- and this was my Basic Reading class. The third rotation was at night, and this was when I was in the Haunted House. I was a cat for the first two groups- then got scary for the last. I must confess that I really enjoyed scaring my kids as they came through the haunted house- sometimes the boys get a little cheeky in class- so I really enjoyed paybacks in the form of scaring the tar out of em! Some of my boys were so afraid that they couldn't go all the way through- they turned around and asked me to let them out. They also screamed in a higher pitch than the girls- which had me laughing so hard that I almost peed my pants! And ironically, it was my girls that made it all the way through the HH. Good times at the Halloween Party! We had a really good time talking about how much I scared them this week in class!
My trick-or-treating group- you can see their reactions as one of the secretaries came out with a scary mask on. That was the most we scared the youngest group.

One of the teachers requested erasers to give away as a prize for her game- and some of them said God Erases Sin- which I thought was hilarious- so I had to keep one. It felt like I was in the South again!

Lindsay preparing to get scary for the Haunted House- I have never seen her hair sooo big!

My nice cat costume!

Poor Cooper was not impressed when they dressed him up as a gypsy woman!

Julia and Jimmy- two of my kindergarteners!

Here is sweet little Simon- he is only two years old! He can't even speak Chinese yet and they have him in English school- expensive babysitters!


Scary Sarah! Get ready kids- no mercy! Also- Sunny scared the crap out of me with his Joker costume!
