Elementary Celebrates Halloween

On the week before Halloween, the elementary department gathered
together and viewed the 2009 Halloween ASL DVD. The DVD
generated many creative ideas for doing ASL poetry, song, and drama.
The students practiced their own Halloween ASL poetry, drama, and
stories before making their final presentations in the bilingual language
arts lab. The entries were published on a Halloween ASL 2010 DVD.
On Wednesday, October 27, the students wore a variety of cute, scary,
and creative Halloween costumes. They paraded around the campus,
greeting WSD staff and receiving treats. WSD director of curriculum and instruction
Constance Gartner and her office associate Joan Knowlton transformed themselves
into beautiful queens and handed out treats. By the end of Trick or Treating, the
exhausted pre-schoolers dragged around bags weighing more than their own weight.
The party continued after Trick or Treating, with the children playing games and
having a blast watching the Halloween ASL 2010 DVD they had made.
