The tallest, widest, and smallest pumpkins!
Morning class
This week we have been working on measurement. We measured the height and weight of our pumpkins. The kids made pumpkin "belts" to measure the circumference of the pumpkin and made "towers" to measure the height. The kids loved it and it was so cute to watch them learn something new. We also talked about estimation. They estimated how many cubes high their pumpkins would be. I think we might need to work on that a little bit! :) Tomorrow we will try pumpkin seed and graph our favorite jack-o-lantern faces. The winning face will be carved in a gigantic pumpkin I bought this past weekend. That should be interesting. Did I mention that I love Halloween?!
