Halloween Oral Presentation

Hello Parents,

A note was sent home on Thursday (see below) regarding our upcoming homework for this week. Homework bags will be replaced with a short Halloween oral presentation. Students are encouraged to be creative  by using props, expression and lots of enthusiasm!!

Looking forward to the presentations!!

HOMEWORK NEXT WEEK...

Homework will be a little bit different next week.

Homework bags will be replaced with a Halloween oral presentation. I am sending home 4 Halloween poems

(also below). The students will choose ONE poem to

practice orally at home. They will be presenting the poem

on Halloween ( Thursday, October 31st) to the class.

They should use an audible voice and expression for the presentation. They could use props if they wish. They

could also have key words of the poem to refer too.

I will give them one block to practice in class with a

friend next week.

Be creative and have fun!!

Choose ONE of the following poems.

Here are the poems that your child could choose from:

The Witch

I’m a mean old witch with a hat,

And I ride on my broom with my cat,

And my shoes are pointed,

And my chin is too,

So you’d better watch out,

Or I might scare you.

Boo!

Hallowe’en Friend

Orange Mr. Pumpkin,

The window frames your grin.

Long after I have gone to bed,

Your candle burns within.

I worked so hard to carve your mouth,

Those circles for your eyes.

And now you light this special night -

A Hallowe’en surprise!

I’m Waiting

I’m waiting…

for Hallowe’en to come,

for goblins to scowl,

for witched to howl,

for cats to yowl,

for ghosts to fly,

for werewolves to cry,

and then I’ll know it’s 

Hallowe’en!

Hallowe’en Manners

Hallowe’en will soon be here,

I like to trick-or-treat.

I’ll dress up in a costume,

And walk along the street.

It’s fun to knock at every door,

And scare the folks I meet.

And when they give me goodies,

I’ll thank them for my treats.
