5th Grade Pumpkin Math 5th Grade Pumpkin Math Fifth graders at Wheatland School brought pumpkins of all sizes into their classrooms. They counted creases in their pumpkins and estimated the pumpkins' weight and the number of seeds each one contained. Students came up with various hypotheses, such as predicting whether a pumpkin would sink or float in water. Then students started putting their results on graphs to show how their measurements compared with the original hypotheses.
Students graphing circumference, guess how many seeds, buoyancy, and the weight of their pumpkins.
