Last October 30 th, we celebrated Halloween at ALKOR school. It is a very important festival for us, because we are a bilingual school and we adapt many of the traditions of English-speaking countries to our curriculum.
This year we had a great time, celebrating and participating in this event. We played a lot of games and activities, we dressed as witches, pumpkins, ghosts, vampires, monsters, bats ...

We did some activities prior to the festival:
In each class, age, we made different drawings related to Halloween, which decorated the school (walls, columns, hallways, classrooms, hall, doors ...) Each class did something different:

• 1 year: we made ghosts with the imprint of fingers of each child
• 2 years: we made ghosts as well but this time decorated with stamps.
• 3 years: we painted pumpkins orange, then all together created three giant pumpkins that our teacher hung from the ceiling.
• 4 years also painted pumpkins and put on the doors of each class.
• 5 years: we colored black cats that we put in the hallway
  

We already had decorated the school! It turned out very nice, but it was a little scary and even scarier when we put on Halloween music in the entrance to the school.

Finally came the big day! We had a great time ... You want to know what we did? .We went to the school´s theatre and the teachers, who were disguised as witches and cats, made a play that we liked very much, “Black cats”.

Then we went to the dining room, where we played typical Halloween games like "trick or treated", "Guess who I am," "Where is the flashcard," ...

Later in each class the teacher made some drawings of Halloween (bat, witch hat, cat, pumpkin, ghost ...) in the blackboard and we painted it with colored chalk. All the classes were very nice.

We also made very large murals with our hands. We drew eyes and a mouth and they appeared to be ghosts, each child named our ghost. We even have it hanging in class and it makes us very excited see them every day...!
