Halloween at SMY!

Tomorrow's Halloween! SMY celebrates with black and orange clothing and accessories. 

 

October Fun!

How many ribs does the pumpkin have?

Here are some guesses:

Katherine - 100

Logan - 20

Dylan - 16

Charlie - 60

Zeke - 7

Abrahim - 70

Ralph - 2

Tamit - 13

Logan was right! Our pumpkin has 20 ribs.

Does the white pumpkin look the same on the inside as the orange pumpkin?

We had 11 friends think the pumpkin would be white on the inside and 19 think it would be orange.

We were all wrong! The white pumpkin is yellow on the inside. We even noticed that the smell is different than an orange pumpkin.

Our friends helped empty out our pumpkins so we could get ready to carve them. 

We asked our friends to design a face for our pumpkins. We voted and chose 2.

Guess Who?

Can you figure out which pumpkin belongs to you? 

We took a close up picture of every student in our class. They decided if they wanted to make a jack-o-lantern using their eyes, nose and mouth.

Millers Pumpkin Patch

 Perfect day for our first field trip. 

Miller's Farm

Look at all the fun we had at the farm!

Heading to the farm

Katherine said this was her first school bus ride.

We were able to pick one pumpkin and one gourd. The students had to pick ones that they could carry.

Tessa attempting to pick up a big pumpkin. Good try Tessa!

Story Time

Everyone got to eat an apple for a snack.

The Ladybug's were given booklets to print what they saw at the farm.
