| We worked together and put pumpkins in order from smallest to largest |
We're in our second week talking about fall. It's so tempting for me to do this unit at the end of September, when it
technically is fall. Unfortunately it FEELS like summer then and we
need a few more weeks so that it looks, feel, and even smells more like
fall. Last week we talked a lot about leaves and how they change color and fall this time of the year. We talked about how leaves are different sizes and different shapes-based on the tree the come from (much like people!).
We were able to expand on that this morning as we walked upstairs to play. Unfortunately, the playground was wet, but we stopped by the doors to admire the beautiful changing leaves on by the church!
Today, we started talking about pumpkins-and plan on cutting one open and emptying out the inside of it on Wednesday before the Fall Festival! As you can see here, the kids
worked together to put the mini-pumpkins in order from smallest to largest and then later decorated them.

Olivia loved all the fall things in the science center today! What a fun idea! I think that Olivia has really warmed up to the idea of science in everyday life because of the casual way you use it in the classroom...and because of Dr. Scott on Dinosaur Train! Ha!
ReplyDeleteThe pumpkin ordering was such a great way to get the kids to problem solve together! Cool!
You are so wonderful for this bunch of kids!
