First graders had so much fun learning about pumpkins. We learned about the characteristics of pumpkins, the life cycle of pumpkins and even counted the seeds inside of a pumpkin. 

The first graders needed to engineer a tool that would help them pick up a paper apple and then pass it to a friend without touching the apple with their hands. They came up with some creative solutions!

First graders work on reading, writing and spelling during literacy centers.
