Pumpkins make awesome math tools. We used our little pumpkins to do all sorts of math activities.
Here's Payton doing a "Scientific Drawing" of her pumpkin. We made sure to include labels on our drawings.
Will a pumpkin float? Almost all of the students predicted that it would sink. Surprise, surprise!

How much do pumpkins weigh? Connor is testing his out.
How many paper clips around is a pumpkin? Reagan is measuring.
McCall and Elise are working to see how many cubes tall their pumpkins are.

And just for fun...we had a contest to see who could balance their pumpkin on their head and walk!
