First and most important:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! I have really enjoyed the Halloween lessons with you!!!
In 2nd A, we had a great time with Michael Jackson and Thriller, but problably the most memorable moment was my heel breaking the teacher's chair!!! Let's forget about it.
With regard to 2º B, you haven't let me down and you have done a really good job!!! I asked you to bring something related to Halloween to the classroom but I never thought you would answer in such a way!!! Excellent!!! And now,as I promised, it is time for rewards.
Gabriel, Teresa and Alicia: Your sandwiches were deliciuos, but even more than that: they were perfect!!! And your punch??? It has really impressed me and my pupils in 3rd eso have

drunk it up!!! I know you have worked a lot and you were really enthusiastic. Thanks a lot for sharing my enthusiasm. You are great. I am going to give you 75 stars.
Alba and Mari Carmen: How can I define your cake??? Yummy... Mmmmmm... So delicious... As a proof of it the fact that we have eaten it up in 0'2.

MORE HALLOWEEN STARS. RIDDLES AND RHYMES.


Halloween is so close now... I want to be sure you know all the typical Halloween creatures. Do you think you can solve these riddles??? But be careful because if you make a mistake, a curse will be put on you. Har har har. THIS IS HALLOWEEN!!!
WHO AM I?
1. I was wrapped in white and buried in my tomb a long time ago. Now, I wait in the dark with my golden treasures all around. Outside the sand piles high over top my tomb.
2. I am a monster that has been on a diet. There is no fat on me! Or muscle either! You might say that I am all skin and bones --without the skin. I rattle when I walk. And my teeth chatter when I talk.
3. Welcome! Have a seat. Dinner will be served shortly. Sorry we don't have any garlic bread. I can't stand it. What am I drinking you ask? Don't worry . . . it's . . um . . . grape juice. Now just relax while I look at your neck.
4. I walk through walls as I please. Sometimes you can see me and sometimes you can't. I moan and I groan. I rattle chains. You find me in old houses, graveyards, and castles.
5. Most of the time, you would never guess I was a monster because I look just like you. But once a month, I let my hair down and howl at the moon. But beware! If I bite you will become like me.
6. Dressed in black, I brew potions, I cast spells, and I put curses on people. If you bother me or my cat, you'll sit on a lily pad and eat flies.

And now some RHYMES. Do you dare??? The curse in this case will be even worse!!!
1. What a witch rides that rhymes with room:
2. Who makes a web and rhymes with wider:
3. A monster with stitches that rhymes with mine.
4. What kids say that rhymes with meat:
5. A monster that rhymes with tummy:
6. A scary thing that rhymes with toast:
7. A witch’s pet that rhymes with rat:
