Pumpkin Lab

Families,

Here's a look at our Pumpkin Lab this morning. It was a fun and messy activity filled with math (and pumpkin goo).

Each group chose a pumpkin

 Then they estimated the weight, number of seeds, circumferences, and other characteristics of their pumpkin.

Working together, students discussed each of their estimates.

 Then it was time to open the pumpkin and count the seeds.

Students scooped, separated seeds from goo, and counted seeds into groups.
