I hope you enjoy some pictures from our science lesson today on whether or not pumpkins float in water. First, we journaled our predictions. Then, I filled a bucket with water and let the children dunk their pumpkins. We came back together as a class and talked about our predictions and the results. Ask your child if they can remember why pumpkins float. (Answer: The seed cavity is hollow therefore there is a lot of air that allows the pumpkin to float. keyword "air") Check out our pictures!
This is what the students journaled today. I modeled the writing as they listened and copied the words into their own journals. We practiced letter sounds, blending sounds to make words and looked at upper and lower case letters. We also talked about proper spacing inbetween each word and across the page - only one finger space or the width of a pencil between each word.
Can we go first? 
Can we go next? Pretty please?
Ready for our turn!
We are so excited!
