October Family Project

Each month we will do a family project. These are projects that can be done at home with your family. Our first
family project is called “Pumpkins on Parade”. For this project, students are to choose his/her favorite book and
decorate a pumpkin to resemble the main character in the story (please refrain from using cartoon characters).
This project is due on Monday, October 26. Please let me know if you have any questions. Have fun!
