Everything you ever wanted to know about pumpkins...


The Discoverers (with the help of many parents) spent an hour on Friday exploring pumpkins! It was quite a learning experience (and fun too)! We measured using non-standard units of measure, we estimated, counted and examined the outside of the pumpkin. Next, we cut inside to see what we could find out! Some pumpkins were very gooey inside! One pumpkin had about 250 seeds and another pumpkin had over 600 seeds. It made us wonder how many seeds a smaller pumpkin would have.
