Pumpkin time!

In first grade we read How Many Seeds In A Pumpkin by Margaret McNamara.  I probably enjoy this a little too much because like so many others I really like pumpkin but particularly in the form of a pumpkin spice latte or muffin. I read this book with first grade and kindergartners and I bring in 3 different sized pumpkins and just like the class in the book, we take guesses about which pumpkin will have the most seeds. We also estimate about how many seeds will be in each pumpkin which is always entertaining. Next week I will come back with the seed count for each pumpkin so my children and I will get to have some fun at home. We will also have ready to carve pumpkins. Enjoy the fall.

4th & 5th Grade Book Club

I will be hosting my first book club on Wednesday, November 12th, in the media center right after school. We will be reading the book: Tango The Tale of an Island Dog by Eileen Beha. I do have 2 copies of the book here in the media center but most likely students will need to get their own copy through Thayer Library. Children need to come with the book already read.  This will be a one time meeting on that book. We will do another book club a month later but on a different book.
Here is a link to the flyer.

I look forward to talking about the book!
