What a GREAT week back!

Pumpkin Jack


YUCK!
That is the only way to describe our observations of Pumpkin Jack on Day 70!

See for yourself.


We noticed an increase in the amount of water that is inside the container.  Keep in mind, before the pumpkins were placed into the container we only filled it with dirt.  We never added any water!

We noticed mud and a small amount of orange skin left.

We noticed that you could tell where the two pumpkins had been.



Reading Roller Coaster


This is one of our favorite reading activities!

To complete Reading Roller Coaster, you have to go through a variety of obstacles.  Before you can do each obstacle, you have to read a Trick Word.  If you read the word correctly, you get to go through the obstacle. If you read it wrong, you have to go back to the beginning.

If we read the word where correctly...
we got to crawl through the tunnel.


If we read the word there correctly...
we got to try and weave through the crabs without getting pinched.


If we read the word were correctly... 
we had to scoot across the floor like a seal.


If we knew the word they...  
we had to enter the sharks cave and whisper it into his ear.


If we read the word does correctly...  
we got to "harpoon" the whale.

We sure do LOVE Reading Roller Coaster...it is the best way to practice our Trick Words.
