Our Morning
We spent the morning at Zacharias' pumpkin patch. The children picked pumpkins and gourds from the fields and indian corn from the corn fields. We enjoyed a long tractor drawn wagon ride to and from the different fields.
We returned to have recess and lunch!
Our Afternoon
*The children collaboratively made a list of all the things we had seen and done at the farm. They each chose an idea to draw and tell a "story" about, with the teacher writing their dictated words. These pumpkin story pages will be traveling from home to home in our next edition of a class book, "Way Down Yonder in the Pumpkin Patch!"
*We watched a short video about the pumpkin life cycle, entitled, "Pumpkin Circle".
*We had music class with Mrs. Keating.
