The Halloween Party was a lot of fun, and I loved seeing students in their costumes. I hope that everyone who came enjoyed the activities (especially trick-or-treating!).

The younger students made something called “exquisite corpses.” The name sounds strange and scary but it’s a term to describe several people making one piece of art together. One person will make a head, one person will make an upper body and one person will make a lower body. I used to practice this a lot with my friends. It’s fun to make up stories for the monsters/demons/animals/people/aliens you create! The students’ monsters look pretty wild but they are also charming. I like their bright colors and strange proportions — some have big heads, some have heads that don’t touch their bodies, and one has a head with floating parts!
