Pumpkins, Pumpkins Everywhere!






Our bulletin board.

So after apples, I started teaching about pumpkins.

This is the life cycle of the pumpkin. This took a surprisingly long time though.
My sponsor teacher did finger painting with the children, mixing different amounts of yellow and red to make different shades of orange.
Using up the pumpkin seeds.
As an conclusion to apples and pumpkins, we compared the two.

This weekend my sponsor teacher and some of my cohort friends attended a Pro-D workshop.



We were to build a community and a bridge.
 
Balloon rockets.


An "outfit" to protect a potato.



Testing the "outfit."


Wonderful view from where we had the workshop :).
On a side note.
There is only 3 weeks left of my practicum (I can't believe 10 weeks have gone by already)!!! My mixed feelings of excitement and nervousness are starting to appear.

  1. Dear Ms. Lai! Your blog makes me want to be part of your class. What an inspiration for doing integrated units! I am sure you are going to be a wonderful all-day K teacher.

    (are you going to do a blueberry unit too? hehe)
