★ Today we are learning about the life cycle of a pumpkin. First, you have to plant a pumpkin seed, over the next few weeks the seed will start to grow and sprout, before long you can start to see the start of a green pumpkin growing, then a while later the pumpkin turns orange!
★ Today I’m carving my first pumpkin. First, I use a pen to mark the design of my pumpkin, Next, I use a knife to cut off the top of the pumpkin. Then, I empty all the seeds out from the middle of the pumpkin. Last, I start to cut out the design on the front of the pumpkin.
★ Today is Halloween and we’re going to a costume party! I put on my black cat costume and head to the party. The first person I see is Jack, he is dressed up as Frankenstein! Then, we see Peter who is dressed up as a pumpkin! Finally, I see my best friend Annie, who is dressed up as a witch!
★ Today is Halloween, me and my sister have been carving a pumpkin ready to put in our window. Once we have finished, I dress up as dracula and we go trick or treating. When it gets dark, I thought I saw a witch flying past on her broomstick, then a black cat ran past us, chasing the witch! I blink, wondering if it was a dream.
★ Today, we are going to visit a haunted house. When we open the door we hear rustling and we scream as a bat flies over our heads, out into the dark. We have a look around the house and find a coffin, as we open it, a mummy jumps out of it and chases us! When we stop, it’s my older brother, Jason, teasing us!
★ Me and my friend are going ghost hunting in the woods! The woods are very dark, and lots of the trees have lost all of their leaves so they look bare and scary. Behind a tree I can see some spooky eyes looking at us, when we get closer, out jumps a giggly ghost in a witch’s hat!
