We have a plan...it all makes perfect sense!

October scheme.

• No schedule am = 10-15 mins Halloween hello, same idea goodbye time when no schedule. 
• Oct 28 = do some performance to fit birthday day
• Long days no schedule 5-10 mins Halloween vocabulary on demand & 5-10 sayonara minutes. Halloween story book (I'm thinking app as we don't have much up that street at the office) instead of their reader.
• Oct 15,17,28 ,30 = longer goodbye time - song + some teaching, eg vocab via f/cards
• 5 Jim times = 30 minutes a pop
• 18th = skeleton/dem bones song
• Hello trick /treat song

• 14/17 use same LP 
• 16 = all 60 in hall, practice the dances & something else
• 21/24 = same LP Halloween theme, same LP twice
• No Jim time before 14th, just music.
• Give iLeader heads up before big Jim Time for her to help out
• Music onto memory stick? Can they manage that?
• 31st half day
• Oct 7 paint the base plates in the hall
• 14 & 17 = activity time = crayon on the face. See p398  - eyebrows, eyeliner, bags under eyes, scar, mouth + half teeth, glue on fluffy nose. iLeader etc will do hair & strap
• Bring my mask & pumpkin pics ; use American pre-school stuff
• Start with trick or treat song, then intro culture (as above)
• Give the painting etc 15-20 mins ft
• 16th, hall with 60 ~ dream up a dance to dem bones & 2 teachers dressed up in skeleton t-shirts & activity to fill up 30 mins. iLeader needs plan by 10th (absent on 16th)
• 21 & 24 older lot, 30 mins something different wrt Halloween
• Oct 18th 9-12 dads' open day; autumn/Halloween them. Join in with my son? Bit of showing off with songs.

Want a sodding plan for home time bollocks, 17,28, 30, 31 (extended so book or s/thg) - as if that is ever going to work. Always something else crops up or some mini-drama to attend. Am there, ready & set to go. Cannot write down the improvisation required! Daft.
