Seeds, seeds, seeds

Thank you to John for bringing in his pumpkin seeds for us to observe today! We wondered how many seeds there were in John's pumpkin he carved this weekend and decided to do some exploring at the end of math to find out! We figured out that the best strategy would be to count by tens. We organized groups of pumpkins seeds on the rug and labeled them. It was a great impromptu math lesson. Turns out there were 224 seeds!!
