The classroom teacher binds he drawing into a book. Before the field trip plan 10-15 minutes to discuss the 5 attributes and how they apply to pumpkins. Place five pieces of chart paper on the wall. Each piece of paper is labeled with one attribute. Students examine their pumpkins at their desks.
Students sit around the floor graph.
Attribute cards are placed at the top of the graph. Students then place their pumpkins on the appropriate places on the graph. This should take between 30 and 40 minutes. For orange, the pumpkins had to be completely orange with no visible green or brown. After graphing additional activities can be done, if desired.
