Grade 1: a pumpkin patch of discovery!

Two students work together to weigh a pumpkin.

Thursday’s Core Knowledge Block (CKB) in Lauren Devery’s class celebrated the season AND our students’ smarts!

A STEM pumpkin investigation allowed the first graders to compare and contrast the gourds, estimate their weight and then determine actual weight using a scale and also included a fall math craft.

The hands-on activities were a great way to incorporate learning standards into the fun month of October!
