Pumpkins, pumpkins & pumpkins!

We have been doing so many pumpkins activities. We are pumpkin experts for sure!  We carved our pumpkin and counted the seeds. Everyone got to see, feel, smell and taste the pumpkins.







We recorded tons of data in our pumpkin science book. Ask them to tell you the pumpkin life cycle. Ask your child if a pumpkin floats or sinks?
Ask them how many seeds it has? (over 500!! and we counted all of them by 10's of course) Ask them what their favorite was; bread, pie or seeds??

We counted pumpkin seeds on pumpkin cards.

We laced the pumpkins.
We played a Halloween matching game.

We added pumpkins to Farmer Brown's farm.
We are Pumpkin experts!! In case you were wondering, the class told me I was the best "pie cooker ever!"  Ha!!!  Aren't kindergarteners great?  Happy Halloween y'all!!!


I almost forgot our sink or float pictures!!!  We predicted whether we thought the pumpkin would sink or float and graphed our predictions.


The little ones definitely floated but we were still unsure about the big one!  I love their faces as he dropped it in!  It made quite the splash!
It floats!!   :0)

Book Parade

We had a great time at the book parade this morning. We had so many book characters at the school! So fun!!

Kindergarten teachers Teach like a Techie with Apps and you know I love to Blog!!  :)

Kona Ice

The Kona Ice truck came today. Our class won a prize for having the most from any class attend the carnival. :)
We invited our fifth grade buddies to join us. They are going to be helping us with our e-portfolios. We thought it was a great way to say, "thank you."  We had a great time!

We have pumpkins!!!

We are so excited that our pumpkin patch has many tiny pumpkins growing. We have been able to watch the vines spread, the flowers bloom and the green little pumpkins grow and start to turn yellow. We can't wait for them to turn orange. What a learning experience about life cycles for our students. Please check your child's blog to see pictures they took themselves and posted.



Ladybugs!!


These are a few of the videos we have watched about pumpkins this week.
