Pumpkins

Well we got very familiar with pumpkins this week! We compared apples and pumpkins (who knew they were so much alike?), we estimated how round they were using string, we read pumpkin stories, and we ended our short week with our pumpkin investigation where we learned if pumpkins sink or float and we got to open up a pumpkin to see what they look like and feel like inside! Everyone was brave and stuck their hand inside! And since we already had the pumpkin opened up, the kids thought we should carve him into a jack-o-lantern, so we did!! We named him Punky Pumpkin!
