Gourd of a Good Time at Tuttle Avenue School


STEAM lesson at Tuttle Avenue School | Eastport-South Manor Central School District

Tuttle Avenue School second graders sharpened their science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics skills while having a gourd of a good time. Assisted by parents, they measured the orange gourds’ circumference and height, estimated and then counted pumpkin seeds in a jar, and conducted experiments to determine if pumpkins and other Halloween objects would sink or float. They also participated in a pumpkin weaving activity and wrote about their close observations of the colorful gourds.
