Fall Fun!

This is my favorite time of year!  Last week, our investigation was centered around pumpkins.  We read about pumpkins, wrote about pumpkins and even dug the pulp and seeds out of one.  They really enjoyed comparing their pumpkin with the pumpkin Mrs. Happel's class cleaned out.  We discussed how the length of time a pumpkin spends on the vine has a big impact on what goes on inside the pumpkin.  Below you'll see a few pictures from our pumpkin investigation and a picture of even decked out in their fall party costumes!
