Explore pumpkins for two full weeks with this simple, ready-to-use Pumpkin Exploration Plan! This plan brings together pumpkin-themed science, discovery, crafts and hands-on experiences to help young learners explore what’s inside a pumpkin, how pumpkins grow, what they look and feel like, and more.
Activities include trying simple science experiments, decorating mini pumpkins, learning about the pumpkin life cycle and tasting pumpkin pie.
This plan is designed to complement your existing preschool or Pre-K routine. Literacy centers, math centers, alphabet activities and other daily academic lessons are not scheduled within the plan, giving you the flexibility to pair it with the learning activities that work best for your students.
