Pumpkin Fun!

Pumpkin Math Fun - slideshow

It all started with a story, How Many Seeds in a Pumpkin by Margaret McNamara. Check out these photos where we...

•  Estimated the number of seeds in our class pumpkin
•  Estimated its circumference
•  Estimated its weight with and without seeds
•  Estimated its height using unifix cubes as our unit of measurement
•  Separated seeds from pulp
•  Counted the number of seeds, by 1's and 10's
•  Recorded our pumpkin data
•  Tallied the number of cups filled
•  Compared our own pumpkins' circumferences and weight
•  Estimated and measured our own pumpkin's height using unifix cubes

Phew!!! We have been busy Buckeyes!!
