Pick the biggest pumpkin you can find. Cut off the top and smell the fresh pumpkin smell. Carving a Jack O'Lantern leads into a mathematical unit study of place value that incorporates all five senses.
Counting pumpkin seeds into groups of 10's, 100's etc. helps children understand our decimal system and prepares them in a concrete way to understand higher level math.
Scoop out those seeds, roast them if you like and count your way into a concrete understanding of place value.

Wild Turkeys nearly became extinct in the 1930's but times have changed and turkeys have benefited. Now turkeys are often found in fields and on the edge of the woods.
In this unit you will learn about Wild Turkeys, read turkey facts and stories, play some turkey games and do some turkey projects.
The turkeys will also help you learn to tell time. Turkey time, seasons, clocks, and the time to eat turkey.
So put on some feathers and practice your gobbling because it's Turkey Time...
