Welcome to Drop-In Circle Time! This class is all about pumpkins! We will begin with our greetings and name song to get to know each other. Every learner will be encouraged to tell the group what they know about pumpkins. Next, we will do some fun songs and fingerplays about pumpkins, including (of course) Five Little Pumpkins. Math awareness activities will include one-to-one counting, number recognition, and rote counting using fun cartoon pumpkins. We will also do more than/less than and a group graph from a poll. For Science, we will explore the parts of a pumpkin, the pumpkin lifecycle, how a pumpkin grows, and more. Everyone will get the chance to share what they learned in class before saying goodbye. During this class, learners will have a chance to meet new friends while exploring a popular topic. Everyone is encouraged to participate in all activities. There will be visual aids in the form of hand and finger movements, screen-shared slides with animation, and some sound effects. Discussion is encouraged! All materials will be screen-shared by the teacher. Learners will need nothing outside of the Outschool Zoom classroom.
