Pumpkins & Scarecrows

  Pumpkin Fun!

We mixed yellow and red to make orange.  Then we painted a pumpkin shape.

Look at our pumpkin patch!

Run, run as fast as you can!  You can't catch me!  I'm the pumpkin man!

 

The students drew and wrote about how they would carve Jack-O.

 

 

The students wrote and illustrated how to carve a pumpkin using this form.

We are writing about our pumpkin discoveries!

Spice Cake + Pumpkin = Pumpkin Muffins

Yummy!!!

The students and their guests are enjoying quality time together on Halloween.

We read scarecrow stories and planted a pattern.

The students are in small groups playing learning games with their friends.

SOME PUMPKIN FUN!

 Take a look at some of our pumpkin fun from my PLENTY OF PUMPKINS thematic unit.

We turned our pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns.  Each student went shape shopping to design their Jack-O's face.  Each one is different!

This is one of the non-fiction pumpkin books I read.

The students make a pumpkin circle necklace for retelling the life cycle of a pumpkin.

Here's our class pumpkin, Jack-O!

Here's Jack-O after we carved his face.  Sorry about the picture but I couldn't get it to rotate.

I used the document camera and we worked together discussing the steps of carving a pumpkin.  The students used the Sounds Chart and Stretchy Snake to write the words.

Run, run as fast as you can.  You can't catch me!  I'm the pumpkin man.

 

We made pumpkin books!

Jack-O is stuffed with treats!

This is the back side of Jack-O.  Each student counted the shapes used.

COMPUTER CREATED JACK-O-LANTERNS

Look at what the students created in computer class!
