Pumpkin Pumpkin

We continue to work on descriptive writing. Today the students focused on exploring nouns and adjectives in more detail. We used our Halloween word wall words to help us come up with fun ways to describe. We also talked about other nouns or adjectives that we can think of. Have a look at the list we came up with!


Next, the students used a pumpkin to help them come up with words to describe. Words that describe a pumpkin are adjectives. We used our eyes, our hands and even our nose to come up with some creative adjectives to describe both the inside and the outside of the pumpkin. 

Have a look at some of the adjective words we came up with today. We are using our pumpkin to help us with some pumpkin investigating. Tomorrow we will add to our investigation by estimating and counting the features inside and outside of the pumpkin! We will also get to work with the grade 3 class on a fun math activity. Don't forget to wear black, orange and have crazy hair!
