Woodland Creature Houses

We spent the past week as engineers designing and building Woodland Creature Houses using only things we found in nature on the ground.  (and some wooden popsicle sticks) 

Today we took our houses out to the forest and created streets, paths, bridges and neighborhoods to place our houses in.  

So much fun!

Pumpkin Fest

We celebrated Halloween Day with a Pumpkin Fest.   

We each built our own catapults and decorated a round shape as a pumpkin.  

We had a great time at recess time launching our pumpkins.    

We followed clues on pumpkins to make our way through the Pumpkin Scavenger Hunt.  

Edible Tree Parts

During snack time we used crackers, pretzels, fruits and veggies to make edible trees.  After creating our trees, we added labels for the different parts of the tree.   

The best part was eating all the tree parts!

Papa's Pumpkin Patch

 

Special thanks to Dan for teaching us how he grew his pumpkins.  

We drew pictures of our favorite pumpkins.  

We counted the lines on our pumpkins and used tape measures to see how big around they were.  

Thank you Ms. Laurie for the delicious pumpkin muffins!

read books from our book boxes, 

made a phone call, 

ate dinner, 

had a tea party, 

played musical instruments, 

 and had a dance party with glow sticks.
