The kindergarten and first
grades in our district took part in a fun internet project that involved
184 classrooms from 36 states
and 2 Canadian Provinces. Each class had to estimate the number of pumpkin
seeds in their 1-5 pound pumpkin. Then they had to cut open the pumpkin and
actually count the number (using tally marks). It was a messy “operation” but
VERY fun!

pumpkin hats. The first grades had a “Pumpkin Fashion Show”. Here are a few of their
creations!
