Oooooooo spooky, eerie, chills and thrills.
Bring your own broom. Happy Halloween!
Scary or not? All these critters on Page 3
might scare you, but some are quite friendly.
Then get your math skills practice if you
want to enter the Haunted House and find
the hidden treasure. Why didn't the skeleton
go to the Halloween party? Because he had
no body to go with!
Fires are scary in a different
way and there are so many of
them. Make a plan — that's the
way to be prepared in case of
fire. The Safety Sizzles! Page
has lots of good advice.
This creature can swim, hop and
even box. Kangaroos are pretty
clever and I love how a pouch can keep those
little joeys free from harm. There are
directions too for you to draw a kangaroo.
Free speech and freedom of the press is a
part of the American Constitution. This
freedom makes it possible for all Americans
to have their voices heard. Free Speech Week
starts October 18 — that is the time to
celebrate that freedom.
Freedom of speech gives me the
right to wish you all a super
spooky Halloween and a
monstrously, enormously fun
October.
