A Halloween poem from Emma K, Grade 3

Halloween, by Emma K in Grade 3

happy-halloween-images-2

Halloween is here!
It's the only night you shall have fear.
Scary ghosts and vampires
Are dancing around big fires.

Ghosts fly hastily around
Being careful not to make a single sound.
Evil fairies fly too
They wait until the ghosts say Booo!

The witch stirs her stew
What she puts in interests you
In go bat droppings, spiders and snake tails too! 
After the witch is done she lets out a big Phew!

She pours her magic stew
Into a bottle and takes her ancient broom
She calls her best groom
He comes running with a comb in his hands.
And as he comes closer he does some handstands.

The comb was full of bugs 
And maybe even slugs!
The witch dirtied her room
And then sat down to her loom.

When the groom was finished
He called his mistress
The witch put on her black dress. 
When she came
The groom told her not to confess. 
What a beautiful mess!

Halloween is here!
It's the only night you shall fear!
The headless rider takes his spear
And pokes you in the rear!! BOOOOOOOO!!!!

Halloween celebrations a treat thanks to grade 6

 HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

halloween 1

A happy Halloween was had by all, albeit a day early, at Asker International School. The celebrations were organised and planned carefully by the students of grade 6, with wonderful support from their parents. Together, they organised a disco, fun and activities, a haunted hotel experience and treats for all the kids there! 

They have now thrown down the gauntlet for next year's grade 6 class. A hard act to follow indeed and I look forward to seeing what they come up with. 

Again, thank you to all for the help on the day. It was a great event, we feel, and hope to see many more wonderful costumes in the years to come!

Chess club was a great success last Thursday with 24 children from grades 4-6 playing chess against each other after receiving a basic introduction on the rules. We will continue on Thursday and will meet up in the grade 1 classroom this time as it is a slightly bigger room. 

I look forward to seeing the students there! I hope the interest is still there as we have a possible 26 students lined up for this Thursday.

The Mighty Egg-Drop

eggdrop1

It was time once again for one of my favourite and fun house competitions: The Egg-Drop. 

Each house was allowed to prepare 4 entries for this competition with 3 requirements: Design, process and efficacy. The kids worked really well together over a very short time span and the result was some great egg-smashing fun! Or truth be told it was quite disappointing because their designs were so good, most of the eggs did not break.

The winner of this competition will be announced once we add the scores together and factor in our 3 criteria for success. It was not just about the egg itself, but more the design process and the level of creativity, which I can gladly say were both very diverse and fun!
