Pumpkin Seed Count 2008
Mrs. Little's Class |
 |
 |
 |
Students in Mrs. Little's and Mrs. Hill's 2nd - 5th Grade classes had a blast competing to see who had the closest estimation of the number of seeds in a 2-5 lb. pumpkin. We used ice cube trays to divide the seeds into groups of 10 for easier counting (and help with place value!).
 |
In addition to estimating and counting the seeds in our pumpkins, we also weighed and measured them. Afterwards we wrote about pumpkins using a bank of describing words that we created as a class.

Dragon's Halloween by Dav Pilkey
 |
Mrs. Little's Kindergardeners had holiday fun building a scary jack-o-lantern just like the one Dragon built in Dav Pilkey's story. We worked on positional words and talked about the difference between "small" and "tiny".
