Halloween at Chans

For the month of October, the fourth and fifth grade students at Chans-Bembrive celebrated Halloween by creating haunted houses (fourth grade) and jack-o-lanterns (fifth grade). To accompany the haunted houses, the fourth grade students transformed themselves into witches, werewolves, skeletons, zombies and monsters by using pictures of themselves and their classmates. Then, with face paint, they became these scary creatures. Finally, the fourth grade students learned the Halloween song that inspired their artwork, "Halloween's Here!" To make jack-o-lanterns, the fifth grade students painted pumpkins or drew scary faces. They also learned Halloween riddles to inspire creative drawings based on the jokes.

Some of the students brought artwork from home, including colourful jack-o-lanterns, spooky drawings and sculptures. The artwork looked great on display!
