Once the pumpkins were all clean we opened them up so the kids could observe the inside.



After carving one of the pumpkins I placed some baking soda inside the pumpkin with a few drops of green food coloring and had the kids squirt some vinegar inside it.  So cool to watch the ooze come out of the pumpkin's mouth.  



Dyed the pumpkin seeds that were in the pumpkin for the kids to review their colors and have some mixing the colors together.

POEMS

BUOYANCY
     By: Amy LV

Rocks in a river
Ice in a drink.
Some things float.
Some things sink.

Floating things
have buoyancy.
Test a little 
toy and see.

Does it sink?
Does it float?
Could you use it 
as a boat?

Try a pencil.
It pops up.
Try a hammer.
Try a cup.

Test some objects
in your bath.
Wath them.
Now you're 
doing math.

If something 
is denser
than the water
it will sink.

But if the waters
denser, then....
