Pumpkin Unit

Instead of just studying one book this week, I decided we'd do a pumpkin unit. We have some favorites that we love to pull out this time of year and next Monday we are off to the farm for a field trip to pick apples and pumpkins. We'll be ready!

Below are the four main books we'll be using. We've been reading them over and over every night and during the day all week!

From Seed to Pumpkin

Too Many Pumpkins

It's Pumpkin Time

Pumpkin Jack

While visiting Candace's blog I came across some links from her pumpkin unit and I spent some time finding fun pumpkin items. These are the ones I liked best. I'm sure in the end we won't use them all, but I'll have them on hand in case.

Pumpkin Jack unit study from HSS

Today the boys put those Five Little Pumpkins on their gate and sang the song. Here J3 is getting awfully precise with that cutting. He filled that gate right up and asked for more and if he cut into a pumpkin he put it in a reject pile. He was all about the cutting today.

Lapbooks are in the works and I will be delighted to share with you how it turns out. Happy Fall!!
