Read THE PUMPKIN SMASHER by Anita Benarde to the class. Discuss story. Hand out precut pumpkin - can be the size of a die cut or larger. Have students cut pumpkin into pieces (not too little), keeping track of how the pieces go back together!Hand out black construction paper (9 x 12). Students place pieces of pumpkin down where they belong - making sure to put 1/4" - 1/2" space between the pieces (can use ruler if it helps-MATH SKILLS), and glue. It would be a great bulletin board with a poem beneath each pumpkin - Cinquain?
Put in Memory Book when done displaying.
