PUMPKIN INVESTIGATION
We can use measure to investigate our class pumpkin!
We used a kg weight to help us make an educated guess, we know that is called an estimate!
We used Problem Solving skills to figure out how to measure the width /circumference!
Our estimate = 62 cm
ACTUAL Width of circumference = 64cm
Our estimate = 3kg
ACTUAL WEIGHT of PUMPKIN = 2kg 400g

Our colour explosions …
Tints, tones, and shades are differences of the hues found on the color wheel when white, black or both are mixed in.
Here a we are creating tones of blue and red, we did this by adding white gradually.
Then we used paper collage to create autumnal spooky pictures.
