Pumpkins!

I can't believe that October is right around the corner. Can you smell that? It's FALLLLL!!! I LOVE Fall. Pumpkin bread, pumpkin lattes, pumpkin scentsy, you name, I love it! As I prepare for this month, I look forward to pumpkin week. Pumpkin week is my absolute favorite! My students each bring their own pumpkin, whatever size they want. Craziness, I know. 

During the week we measure, weigh, graph, and well everything you can think of with these pumpkins. We read pumpkin book after pumpkin book. It's good times!

On Friday, parents come and we carve every single pumpkin. Kids with carving kits. Nightmare? Actually no.  It's actually THE biggest parent turn out of the year and everyone has a blast.  I hope you enjoy this download and have fun graphing. Even if your students don’t bring pumpkins to school, you can bring three and let them choose which their favorite is. J  You can also purchase the complete unit here. Here is the preview of my Pumpkin Investigation Unit for $3.
