Happy Grinch Day Friends!
Today we did everything GREEN, and let me tell you...we had so much fun! We wrote about things that make us feel "Grinchy", played some Grinch math games, had our FAVORITE reader and class helper visit again, and we also made Grinch punch and Grinch dust! What a GREAT day!
Here are a few pictures from our day!
We had so much fun writing about things that make us feel Grinchy. Some of my favorites were:
"I feel Grinchy when I have to go to bed at 9:30. It is way too late!"
"I feel Grinchy when my sister makes me play her games!"
"I feel Grinchy when my mom doesn't make my favorite breakfast."
These are only a few of my faves!
Here we are making our Grinch to go along with our writing prompt!
We also had our favorite dad come in and help us make our Grinchy hats! Miss Lewis' class LOVES Mr. Travis. You should have seen the excitement on their sweet little faces when I told them he was coming back to visit! :)

Mr. Travis was such a trooper today! We put him to work! He also helped our class make "Grinch Dust" (sugar, green food coloring, and a few green sprinkles to seal the deal) and "Grinch Punch"
Making Grinch Dust
Everyone got a chance to stir!
What would Grinch dust be without a little green sprinkle action?
The final product!
Don't forget to sprinkle it in your yard on Christmas Eve!
Next up...Grinch punch!
(I told you we put Mr. Travis to work today)
Tabitha enjoying some Grinch punch
I think Devon likes it...what do you think?

The yellow group
Anna and Kaylie Grace LOVED it!
I think the pink group liked it too!
Uh-oh Nate...you're starting to turn green!!
Before Mr. Travis left, he had time to squeeze in a couple of books! He had his special reading helper read along with him! So much fun!!!!
Look at those excellent listeners!
Finally, we played a Grinchy game called "Sum it Up"
In this game, you have to roll the dice, write an equation, and sum it up! The partner who fills up 3 sum columns first wins the game! this was a MAJOR hit!
