Pumpkin Patch!

What a beautiful day to enjoy nature during Fall!  We ventured to Spooner Farms where we learned about pumpkins, tested their buoyancy, navigated through a rope maze, and found the perfect pumpkin to take home.  Tomorrow the Bumblebees will explore everything they can about their pumpkin while using math and science skills.  In addition, we have an huge sunflower to examine with magnifying glasses and microscopes. We were already using our sketchbooks as we made new discoveries with each pulled seed. 

This week, we will also be going to the food bank to deliver our school donations.  The bumblebees have been collecting, sorting and graphing what has been brought in.
