We are learning about pumpkins this week. Yesterday we saw photos of the life cycle: seed, vine, flower, small green pumpkin and finally the fully grown orange pumpkin. The children are excited about the field trip on Friday. We are still in need of drivers--state regulations will only let children ride with a parent or in a car with someone who has had a background check. A volunteer is making pumpkin bars for our snack.

We added a new student to our class today. His name is Lohith. We now have 19 children in our class.

Next week we will learn about bones.
