Pumpkin Day and a TPT SALE!!


Well, Pumpkin Day was an absolute success!! The kids were chorusing their "best day ever" comments at the end of the day! One kiddo even said, "this was so much more fun than apple day!" Funny, that it was the same kid that said "This is the best day ever!" on apple day and they will also be the one that probably says that on our next themed day! :) Don't you love the excitement of first grade!?

Here are some pics from our great pumpkin day!
Seeing how close our weight estimates were!
A gooey, fun investigation!
We counted LOTS of seeds by groups of 10!
Spin a shape for pumpkin carving!
This is my favorite book to read on pumpkin day!
Our completed pumpkins after our pumpkin investigations!
Our descriptive writing pumpkin craftivity!
Successful pumpkin day also means one very tired teacher. Oh my goodness! Does anyone else feel that way after a fun theme day!?

In celebration of a successful pumpkin day, I'm throwing a TPT sale {here}:
Feel free to use this button for your blog if you also want to throw a TPT sale this weekend!
With the Halloween candy abounding and soon going on great discounts starting November 1, it would be a great time to get my Volunteers are Sweet candy themed thank you packet!
I handed out some to my fabulous parent helpers today and I just love having these notes to give to volunteers as a small way to express my appreciation for them! If you are still looking for some pumpkin themed activities, my pumpkin units are also on sale!
     
My hubby and I got pumpkins to carve this weekend! Can't wait!
