We were busy studying pumpkins in our classroom this week. We used our senses to describe what they look like, feel like and smell like. We compared two different pumpkins. One big, and one small. One pumpkin was also healthy and fresh, while the other one was starting to rot. This comparison made it easier for us to think of describing words using our senses. We also made predictions about the circumference before we measured it. We learned that predictions are like guesses, but they are reasonable guesses. We will continue our pumpkin science next week by studying the seeds and weight.
Welcome to Mrs. McCormack's 1st grade class blog where we post updates and pictures of our learning. Please see the sidebar for links to our other web-sites.
