So much for a cute blog post title...my brain's already asleep! We studied pumpkins this week and learned the letter Pp. Check out a few of our centers and fun activities from the week...Yep....that's all I've got.
You can find the pumpkin investigation under the freebies label on my sidebar.
My pumpkin unit includes a fun graphing activity. I forgot to take a pic of the graph, but each student grabs a pumpkin face from the bucket...then whoever is doing the center has to survey their friends to see which pumpkin they got. They loved it!
The pumpkin floated...to their surprise
We completed the pumpkin investigation except for counting our pumpkin' seeds...not enough time
We learned the poem Five Little Pumpkins and made this to take home to retell to our families. This is made from die-cuts.
On pajama day I always read The Napping House, one of my faves, and Goodnight Moon. Then, we sleep and wake up only when we hear rhyming words. I got this idea from Mrs. Flannagan who no longer has her website, but I do it every year...so much fun!
We learned about the life cycle of a pumpkin and made these cute pumpkins...the back has 1/2 a paper plate stapled to it to make a pocket which holds the sequence cards.
