Muffins and pumpkins

Math Counts: Today we made blueberry muffins for the bake sale. The bake sale will be Tuesday and Wednesday. Our friends used one to one correspondence as they placed one muffin liner in each cup of the muffin pan. We also counted as we added the muffin liners and counted when we added the muffin batter to each cup.

Science Rocks: We asked each child if they thought the pumpkin would sink to the bottom of the water or float to the top. Most of our friends guessed correctly that it would sink. We then put two pumpkins in our sensory table and watched them sink to the bottom of the water. Our friends then used washcloths and soapy water to wash the pumpkins. When the pumpkins were all clean the Cockatoos used paper towels to help dry them off!
