Pumpkins...Pumpkins...Pumpkins!!!

We've had an incredible October!! We studied pumpkins off and on for most of October. We compared apples and pumpkins, learned about the life cycle of a pumpkin, tasted homemade and store bought pumpkin seeds, and created countless graphs and charts. We had a lot of fun adding some of our new information to our science journals.

Junie B. Jones

Yesterday we had the opportunity to take a field trip to see the Junie B. Jones play performed by Samford. We had a an incredible time! We have been reading Junie B. Jones books since school started so we were really looking forward to this trip. Here are some pictures from our adventure...

Parts of a Plant

We had a wonderful time creating our candy flowers. We studied parts of a plant and decided we needed to make our learning hands-on. We had a great time doing just that and an even better time enjoying the finished product. :)
