Pumpkin Week

We had a fun week working with PUMPKINS!
We touched the inside and the outside, counted the lines and counted the seeds.









Sometimes it's necessary to have class in the HALLWAY! 
We hung all of the pumpkin posters in the hallway and discussed the differences in the pumpkins.
The students were surprised (as was I) that our medium pumpkin had more seeds than our large pumpkin!


Each student explored their own pumpkin last week in the Science lab.
Today in the lab, they counted the seeds in their own pumpkin.
We sorted the seeds into piles of 10, but noone finished counting all of them.
We did compare the pile of seeds from our pumpkin to what we remembered the large pumpkin to have, and decided that the small pumpkin had less seeds.  










Gavin didn't like touching the guts!
