Students sat around a pumpkin and observed it very closely. They drew pictures of the pumpkin and made predictions on how many seeds might be inside. Then they counted the seeds as a class. What a messy way to learn! They loved it!
The kids really enjoyed studying spiders. They learned that spiders have 8 legs and some spiders are poisonous and some spiders are good helpers. We also made our own spider webs out of black construction paper.
