Thanks to Alexandre, we made this tasty Pumpkin Bread! We all helped make it and better yet, we all helped eat it! It was delicious!
We have made 3 fall recipes so far - Pumpkin Soup, Pumpkin Bread, and Pumpkin Seeds! I think we are on our way to Pumpkin Pie ;0)
Don't be surprised if you see some of these children on the Food Network in the future!!!!We are wrapping up our costumes, and boy do we look amazing when we put them on! Look at one of our great white sharks below!!! He knew exactly where he wanted each one of his fins to go;0)
One GREAT project that has stemmed from our fall festival project is EMOTIONS! One of the children made a pumpkin and the kids started talking about how it had a happy face. This initiated a wonderful conversation about the different emotions we have and what our faces look like when we have them. We read books on our emotions and had so much fun pretending to be mad, happy, sad, scared, etc...
This started our pumpkin patches of different emotions! We are all working together on pumpkins that represent the different emotions and putting them in pumpkin patches together. Below is our "Happy Pumpkin Patch"! We have a "Sad Pumpkin Patch" and now we are working on a "Mad Pumpkin Patch".
The children have taken pictures of their faces to show us what we look like when we are.......
ANGRY
SAD
HAPPY
And so many more! Take a look in our room and you will find more of our pictures. We are using them to study our facial features, to see what they do when we make the different faces. We are tracing our features with markers and drawing our self portraits......
We are really using all of the pumpkins to practice counting and number how many we are making.......
Stay tuned to see what else evolves from these projects.
