Today we started learning about letter Pp by reading this book,
                                   
                                   Ask me what sound does letter Pp make  /p/

                                             How many p in the word pumpkin

                                        We also talked about how we grow pumpkins?

                                               We observed how our pumpkin looked like..?
                                                           Ask me about it

Using our 5 senses to feel the pumpkin

We came up with a few words 'It's bumpy,"  "Its tipping," "cold"

"Has curvy lines,"         "bumps"   

"rough stem"         "wide"     "gooey"   

We draw what we see, looking at all the details

                            We talked about the printing process. How words have finger spaces

See us observe, draw and print

Courtnee, " I like Pumpkins."                   Zac, " Pumpkins pumpkins, I like

                                                           pumpkins."      

Elliana, " Tipping, cold. I like pumpkins. It  was bumpy." Haneen, "I like pumpkins."

              Omar, " I like pumpkins."                                Carlos, " I like my pumpkin."

Madison, " My pumpkin is tipping and tall."   Mason, " It had mud and was big."

            Raiyan, " It was cold."                                Gabby, " I like pumpkin cold."

Matthew, "I draw lines on my pumpkin."   Amira, " I like pumpkin. It was tipping.

                                                             It was cold and bumpy."

We also read the book, 

                                

                                          Ask me about this book......

                        When we carve a pumpkin...... what is called?

        We learned 2 songs today, 

                                            

                                                                        Ask me how our bones are connected

                                                                  in our body. What would happen if we had no bones....

Ask me to sing them for you..             

We counted the Jack-O-Lantern's

We decided how we want to carve our pumpkin

Ask me about the shape, what I felt?

We made a graph to decide what kind of eyes, mouth and nose we wanted to carve

              

We came up with words, " slimy, spider web, seeds, icky, sticky, gooey"

I can see two words rhyming

Ask me about my exploration!
