Fall fun meets serious math in Mrs. Maio’s first grade class! 🎃
Our amazing Hornets weren't just carving pumpkins; they were practicing essential skills! They worked on estimation, grouping seeds into tens, skip counting, and even created a tally chart and bar to vote on which face Mrs. Maio should carve into the pumpkin
We love seeing this much hands-on learning! Which pumpkin face do you think won the class vote?
