Marcel making some patterns. I made up about 20 patterns for the kids to follow with blocks to help them lean what a pattern is.
The pre-k and kindergarteners making s'mores

Marcel was the one who brought in the s'mores kit for us to use

Making our letter h houses
They came out sooo well. The kids did a really wonderful job.
H for house. They even came up with the idea to make a chimney.
We read this book, ghosts in the house (house begins with h and so does halloween)
Then we made these cute ghosts

The final product of our ghosts.
We've been doing a lot with the 5 little pumpkins poem as well. The kids are making their five little pumpkins sitting on a gate picture

On Thursday I had to keep the kids at school late so I let them watch a movie. All the parents were delayed because there were protests over housing because of the election coming up right outside of school. The parents couldn't drive into the school because the whole road was blocked with protestors so all the parents were late. Most of the kids were taken home around lunch time so my writing classes on Thursday afternoon were kind of a joke. It was nothing dangerous at all, but it was a huge inconvenience for parents to need to get through it so if they were at the school at noon getting the little ones they just took their older kids too so they didn't need to deal with all the demonstrations later on again. It was a hectic afternoon.
Well now we're in Trinidad. We took a flight from Barcelona, Venezeual at 6am to Margarita Island (in Venezeula) We spent from about 8am-2pm on the beach in Margarita getting tan and drinking Coco Locos, also then needing to rush to make our international flight to Trinidad. Our flight left Margarita at about 3pm. The flight went and had about a 15 minute stop in Grenada, then we flew into Port of Spain, Trinidad. It was late when we finally got here, so we pretty much just checked in, got some food and went to bed. We've now eaten breakfast and are about to out to the pool and figure out what we feel like doing today. We're thinking possibly spending Wednesday and Thursday night in Tobago instead of Trinidad. Not positive yet though.
The beach in Margarita at 8am
The colors looked a bit nicer at about 11am.
Off to the pool now! Enjoying a week in Trinidad and Tobago!
