Do you know what is great about pumpkins?  Everything!  Division 7 learned that pumpkins are not vegetables.  They are a kind of fruit called a gourd.  We named our class pumpkin Penelope.  We weighed it, measured its height and circumference, counted its ribs and seeds, and found out whether it would sink or float in water.  Here we are hard at work.[metaslider id=2776]

 

We found out that our pumpkin was four times bigger around than it is high.
