We participated in another online project at www.jenuinetech.com. For this project Mrs. Blunt bought a 4.5 lb pumpkin for us to use. We got to touch it, smell it, listen to it(by tapping on it), and look at it. We then discussed our findings. Some thought the pumpkin did not smell good, some did. Some thought it was bumpy, others thought it was smooth. Then Mrs. Blunt told us about the word circumference. We got to cut off a piece of yarn that we thought was the circumference of the pumpkin. Chase got the closest! Next we each guessed how many seeds we thought we would find inside the pumpkin. Most of us guessed around 100. Mrs. Blunt cut open the pumpkin and scooped out seeds at each of our tables. We grouped the seeds in groups of 10. After we counted them all, our pumpkin had a total of 404 seeds! We had a good time and learned a lot too!
