Pumpkins, Pumpkins Everywhere!

This week our centers were all focused on our theme of Pumpkins! The students learned about the pumpkin cycle and how pumpkins grow and they created their very own Pumpkin Life Cycle! We also acted out the life of a pumpkin starting as a tiny seed and growing into a big Halloween pumpkin.

We read the story of the Five Little Pumpkins and each student made their own book to re-tell this story. We also learned about ordinal numbers when we sequenced the pumpkins - first, second, third, fourth and fifth.

We made Pumpkin faces using shapes that we know - the kids had a great time choosing what kind of face their pumpkin would have.

We also have a "tear art" pumpkin patch growing in our classroom!
