SAFETY QUILT

Teaching students the way to be careful during Halloween comes easily with this project.  Discuss rules that need to be followed. Write them on a 8x8 piece of  paper to put in the quilt (if needed to fill a space).  Some discussion points:  Never Trick or Treat Alone; Stay in your own neighborhood; Cross the street at a corner; Look both ways before crossing a street; Wear light colored clothing; Stay in groups; Stay away from dark houses; Bring Treats home for parents to check...

                                                                                                   

Have students draw an example of the correct way to Trick or Treat on an 8x8 paper.  If you use inch or 1/2 inch graph paper, have students color the outer edge with the same color (black).  This will display their drawing better.   This project can be done during CENTER TIME.   Post in the hallway so other students can review the safety rules.  When the display is taken down, the square can be put in the Memory/Journal Books.
