The last two weeks the kindergartners have been learning all about pumpkins to help prepare for their field trip to the pumpkin patch! They got to cut into a pumpkin, hammer a pumpkin, paint a pumpkin, get a mini pumpkin friend and even make a paper plate pumpkin with real seeds. They got to learn all about the life cycle of a pumpkin and all of its parts! It is safe to say they are ready for their field trip to the Pickin Patch!
