Halloween 2020 was a fun filled day.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • we read Pumpkin Heads! By Wendell Minor in the morning
  • chilled out and had some lunch
  • explored our neighborhood a bit while trick or treating
  • came home to rest and read Stumpkin by Lucy Ruth Cummins
  • snacked on some candy
  • has dinner and played
  • read Halloween Is… by Gail Gibbons at bedtime and learned all about its history

I was really happy to get in more pumpkin inspired books for our nature study while celebrating the holiday, all from our library. Hope you all had a great Halloween.

We officially dove into this weeks nature study today, Pumpkins! Over the weekend we carved a silly pumpkin so that was sort of when we started. Today, Elliot and I did a bunch of fun projects and practiced letters and numbers with pumpkin inspired lessons.

  • we read The Pumpkin Fair by Eve Bunting
  • painted a watercolor pumpkin
  • practiced numbers and writing the letter P with worksheets from @lively.little.home
  • created a mosaic P with pumpkin seeds
  • made little pumpkins with air dry clay

It was a busy fun filled day! We also enjoyed being outside just when the sun came out, had a numbers lesson and played a new matching game. A nice way to start the week.
