5th and 6th graders participated in The Great Pumpkin Drop after learning about Newton’s Laws of Motion in Mrs. Shreve’s Science class. They were able to work individually or in groups to create the best protection possible for their pumpkin. All students were invited to watch as the pumpkins were dropped off of the building. Out of 34 projects, 2 survived with no faults or cracks. This was a memorable experience for all! 🎃

KB wanted to enjoy the sunshine and get a little messy, so they headed outside to carve Pumpkin Jack. Mrs. Kimble read the story in class, and then they did activities that went along with it.  🎃🧡
