Fall Fun Day


Today was Fall Fun Day and some students dressed up as scarecrows. We had a scarecrow parade through the halls of Kaufman first thing in the morning. In the afternoon, we rotated through 5 classrooms for games and a craft.

Counting Pumpkin Seeds






Each class had four pumpkins of varying sizes, and were given the job of predicting and then counting the seeds in each pumpkin. Most groups chose to count the seeds in groups of tens, although some counted by ones, twos, and fives. It was a big (messy) job! We were surprised to learn that the largest pumpkins didn't have the most seeds, and some pumpkins had over 400 seeds in them!

Class of 2020 T-shirts






We each purchased new class T-shirts to wear on special occasions such as field trip, cupstacking day, or field days, or some days "just because" we want to show our class unity. The shirts arrived on Wednesday, October 28, so we all posed for pictures in our new shirts. It was a beaufiful Fall day and it also happened to be during Red Ribbon Week, so it was also our crazy hat (or wig) day. Each class at Kaufman has a different color of the rainbow, and our classes have hunter green and red shirts!
