December Happenings
In our pre-K class, we did an exciting pumpkin study! We measured the height of our pumpkins and sorted them from the largest to the smallest. We carved a pumpkin together and explored the inside—we looked at the seeds, felt the slippery gunk, and talked about how it smelled and felt. We planted pumpkin seeds in a jar and in a baggie so we could watch them sprout and grow. We also created our own pumpkins using markers and water to see how the colors blended. Then we tasted cooked pumpkin seeds and tried puréed pumpkin to explore how pumpkins can be eaten. We even made our own pumpkin pie! It was a fun, hands-on way to learn all about pumpkins.
We hope that you have had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family and friends!! Before we know it, Christmas will be here and to help get us in the holiday spirit, we have created a calendar of fun dress up days and activities full of Christmas cheer!!
Happy Thanksgiving from Pre-k!
