Pumpkin Math

Today the students explored measurement concepts and place value with pumpkins.  Each group found weight, circumference, height, and volume of a pumpkin.  They worked together to scoop the seeds and organize them into 10s and 100s.  The results are shown below along with some pictures of our work.
