Spiders and Pumpkins

For the past two weeks we have been learning about spiders and doing some fun pumpkin activities!

First we read about spiders and learned a few interesting facts. We made these cute spiders with 8 legs, 8 eyes, 2 fangs, and 2 body parts!

 

Next we made a spider graph and discussed the data afterward...are you afraid of spiders?

 

 

We worked on this next  project for a week! First we had to paint a pumpkin and cut it out. Then we painted a piece of paper green for the grass and stem. After all that was finished we made these super cute and SILLY jack-o-lanterns!

 

 

Halloween just wouldn't be the same without "Five Little Pumpkins" in kindergarten. We sang the song, read the book, and made these adorable pumpkins sitting on the gate!

 

 

We talked about the attributes of a pumpkin and came up with a lot of great describing words. Then we made these little pumpkin books and even cut open a pumpkin and made these pumpkin reports.

 

 

 

 

Thanks for taking a look at what your kids have been up to the past couple weeks. We have squeezed a lot in between testing and getting ready for report cards. We will continue with some pumpkin things next week and then lots of fun Thanksgiving crafts and centers during November!
