Check out what's happening in Ms. Bergin's kindergarten class- During our week of pumpkin studies we used our 5 senses to learn about our pumpkins through many activities. We created paper plate parts of a pumpkin, scooped out seeds and the pulp while squishing it in our hands. We used marshmallow pumpkin candy to see what happens in different t liquids as well as used them in stem project to build. We used our seeds to count and recognize numbers and linking chains to measure different sized pumpkins. We also did sink and float, tasted pumpkin pie, knocked on the pumpkins to see if they sound hallow and ripe. Lastly we did an experiment called elephant toothpaste and we had a small reaction of foam.
