Pumpkins: 

We have done so much with pumpkins this week.  We used pumpkins to talk about height, weight, circumference, number of ribs, float/sink, number of seeds, and inside/outside. Here is a look at some of our great learning experiences:
We enjoyed the book Pumpkin Town and learned all kinds of new vocabulary words.
Then we wrote a sentence about what we thought would happen after dad threw the watermelon seeds out.


Myles and Alvis writing cvc words during Daily 5 word works

Pumpkin poem
We enjoyed retelling the poem using picture cards.






Learning all about the life cycle of a pumpkin and a few new vocabulary words.



 

Practicing our 2nd quarter sight words.


Practicing counting by 10's



Making a prediction will our pumpkin float or sink......
FLOATS!!!!!!!!




Measuring the circumference of our pumpkins



 
What is inside a pumpkin? Pulp and seeds!



Time to scoop the pulp and seeds out. It is messy job. Some loved it and others were not too thrilled!



Enjoying our pizza party.

Thank you Jo Schoning from Ruthven Easy Stop for all the fun treats!!!
