This hands-on, cross-curricular investigation brings maths and science together in a fun, seasonal activity. Students explore real pumpkins outdoors, recording data and making observations as they measure, estimate, and calculate.
This pack contains three differentiated activity sheets from whole numbers to two decimal places.
They’ll complete an ID sheet for their pumpkin — giving it a name, measuring key features, and coming up with their own creative investigations.
This activity promotes estimation, measurement, data handling, and scientific curiosity, while encouraging teamwork and discussion. This activity is best done outside.
