Egg Carton Graveyard




This morning Tyson (his brothers and Dad) made this spooky graveyard complete with ghosts (white), tombstones, fog, and signs from an egg carton.

The signs say, RIP, Boo Not Enter, Beware Halloween.
This also brought up a lot of discussion about graveyards & tombstones which we had been talking about already quite a bit (following family deaths over the summer).

Thanksgiving Wall

We got this idea from a family friend and loved it. Tyson made the turkey at EMEC in his art class. He also made the horn of plenty at EMEC("We are thankful" for is coming out of it). From there we colored in the leaves and wrote what we were thankful for (some we scribed for Tyson and Carter). Tyson came up with the idea that our guests would also contribute to our Wall of Thanks. So each guest who came over during the Thanksgiving weekend added to the wall.





Book List



We found this book list in a work book we have been working on, and we decided that we would make it a goal to read every book on the list!

Drawing


A fantastic drawing Tyson brought home from school.
