Pumpkin Investigation Day #2

We started today with reviewing our web from yesterday. Then we brainstormed a list of questions we would like to be able to answer!

Questions
1. What are the different ways to paint a pumpkin?
2. How do you carve a pumpkin?
3. How do you make pumpkin cupcakes?
4 . What are the parts of a pumpkin?

Once we were finished coming up with questions, the students were given the opportunity to "represent" what they think a pumpkin looks like. I placed a variety of materials on a table. Each child was allowed to choose the materials he or she wanted to use to make a pumpkin!



The students had a BLAST!
Tomorrow we will start investigating to find the answers to our questions!
