Our pumpkin activities this week were a lot of fun! On Thursday, we cut into a pumpkin, counted the seeds, roasted and ate them, then graphed whether the kids liked them or not. On Friday, the children went to five different pumpkin stations -- decorating mini-pumpkins, testing whether pumpkins will sink or float, measuring heights, weights, and circumferences of pumpkins, making pumpkin life cycle crowns, and creating a pumpkin patch with pumpkins in size order. Check out the pictures below:
The children also learned the song "Five Little Pumpkins" by Raffi. Together, we came up with motions to the song, then put it into our poetry notebooks with a matching illustration. Check out the kids singing along to the song:
