October Fun

It still doesn't feel like fall here, but we're trying to get into the spirit. After completing our "N" worksheet, we did a pumpkin cutting activity. I drew pumpkin shapes on orange paper and triangles and squares on black paper. First, the girls cut out the triangles and squares to make eyes and a nose, and then they pasted them on their pumpkins. Then they designed a mouth, cut it out and pasted it on too. Finally, they cut their decorated pumpkins and hung them on the window.

We also did some math worksheets today that I got for free from The Critical Thinking Co. We worked on number sense and operations. I extended the lesson a little by cutting out number stickers (1-9). I gave each girl a pile of the stickers in random order and had them put the stickers in order on the back of their worksheets.
