Pumpkin Party

10/31/2018

After we were given a pumpkin at the farm last week for the classroom, the students had so many questions about pumpkins!  This resulted in us having a pumpkin themed week.  We started the week by engaging in pumpkin themed activities with our learning buddies, the Kindergarten students.

The students have been studying grouping, division and multiplication this week.  When they wanted to uncover how many pumpkin seeds were in our class pumpkin they each first estimated an amount.  We then collectively decided to place them in groups of 10 so we could easily count them.  We discovered there were 65 groups of 10 and 2 left over.  The students determined there was 652 in all or 65x10 +2=652.
