Pumpkin Life Cycle Lesson


Today, we talked about how a pumpkin grows. We studied the steps using a Flipchart. We watched a short movie on a pumpkin's life cycle. We learned about seeds, sprouts, vines, flowers, green pumpkins and orange pumpkins. 

We colored the steps a pumpkin takes to grow into an orange pumpkin. Then, we cut out and glued the steps to our Pumpkin Lifecycle Sheet. Look at all those vocabulary words!!

We used these pictures to help us "Put First Things First" as we worked on our Pumpkin Lifecycle Sheet. 


If we needed some reminders about which step came next, we went back to look at the Flipchart! Wow, we are such proactive learners!!! 

At home, ask us to tell you how a pumpkin grows! We are working on using our transition words to help us explain steps (first, second, third, next, then, last).
