Pumpkins Big and Small

Last week the students read informational text about pumpkins. After reading the text, the students helped to make a Life cycle of a Pumpkin anchor chart. Afterwards, the students sequenced the life cycle of a pumpkin.
The students measured, weighed, counted seeds, and predicted if their pumpkin would sink or float. They were very shocked to find out that a pumpkin floats. Afterwards, the students created a pumpkin face and recorded the data from their observations.
