Halloween

Primary 2.2 celebrated Halloween by making some creepy bats and monsters! We also wrote our own scary stories using some fabulous spooky wow words. We also had a super time dancing the night away at our Halloween disco.

“I coloured in the paper plate all in black then I cut out eyes and I cut out legs and folded them up then I stuck them on.”  Bradley

“I brought my bat mask home to use it as a Halloween decoration. I liked the eyes because they were kind of big so they were staring.”  Hamish

“I used some spooky words in my story then I added pictures of a witch, a bat and some pumpkins.”  Isla

“I loved the spooky signs and decorations at the Halloween disco. Some of the costumes were really scary. We done some fun dancing and got some juice and crisps and it was so fun!”  Zoe
