3-D art today! You will need to plan ahead for this one….so hopefully you have a supply of “trash treasures” or you are planning ahead. You will need a milk jug-half-gallon or gallon, it doesn’t matter-for each student. Make sure that they are thoroughly rinsed and dried before you use them! You will also need either a set of cut-out Jack-o-lantern facial features or a set for each student to cut out.
Put plates/dishes of orange paint on the table and let the students paint their milk jugs orange, them have them paint the cap green. At this point, you can either let the students stick the Jack-o-lantern facial features into the wet paint, or you can let the paint dry and then let them glue the features on.
For math today, measure a small, medium, and large pumpkin. To do this, you will need a ball of yarn. Pass the pumpkins around again and have the students compare the sizes and weights. Wrap yarn around the pumpkins and cut it off to the length of the circumference of the pumpkins, then compare the lengths of the string and talk about the concepts of long, short, etc.
