Kindergarten Laboratory

This resource is a science driven, easy to use pack to use when investigating all things pumpkin! Pumpkinology is a great way to incorporate kindergarten science standards in a fun, fall themed way.

Cut off the top of a pumpkin and let them scoop out the insides to count seeds, estimate how many counting cubes tall is a pumpkin, how many paperclips will it take to fit around the pumpkin? Will the pumpkin sink or float? What is the life cycle of a pumpkin? Color or use tissue paper to produce a tear art version to create their very own pumpkin.

I use this resource in my classroom on October 31st as part of our fall party! We investigate all things pumpkin and the grand finale is when we carve a face on the pumpkin, add in baking soda, vinegar and green food coloring to make the pumpkin explode (outside of course)! This is a day your students will remember for years to come!

Teachers can use it as a:

• Halloween party and make each investigation a station
• Week long investigation of pumpkin attributes
• Science project to let little learners estimate what they think will happen
• Fall fun pack
• Lesson on the life cycle of a pumpkin

Happy pumpkin investigating!

Giant CHROMEBOOK Keyboard. Are you teaching a technology or keyboarding class? Do you have a computer lab you need to decorate? This giant printable Chromebook keyboard would be great to print out, cut the keys apart, laminate and place on your wall. Spaced out like the preview image it is 5.5 feet long! Keys are each 4" and fit great on takeout boxes to make them pop off the walls. This is based off a CHROMEBOOK Keyboard. I have included both a color and black/white version so if you wanted to save that color ink, and print the black and white on colored paper, you can easily do that. Pages are separated out by the colors they should be printed on and I have included an image to show you which pages should be printed in a color group. Also included is printing tips which tell you which pages should be printed on what color paper to make it match without printing in color. Need the Mac version?

The size measures approximately 60"x20" (using spacing show in image) once you have cut out the letters / assembled the keyboard, but really depends on how much space you want to put between the keys.
