Pumpkin, Pumpkin

Look what was sitting near Mrs. Kurt's rocking chair on Thursday morning.  She almost tripped over it!  What in the world could be inside this bag???

We read a wonderful story called Pumpkin, Pumpkin by Jeanne Titherington.  It is a story about a little boy named Jamie who plants a pumpkin seed.  The pumpkin seed becomes a pumpkin sprout, then a pumpkin plant, then a pumpkin flower…be sure to as your kindergartner about what happened in the rest of the story!  At the end, Jamie still had some pumpkin seeds.  We wrote about what we thought he might do with the seeds in our blue Reader's Notebooks.

   

We were still awfully curious about what was in the bag…it sure was heavy!  Maybe you have already guessed what it was...

  

…a pumpkin!  But what in the world are we going to do with a pumpkin?  We listed some pretty good ideas for it.

Stay tuned to see what we really do with it!
