Pumpkin Research Project

Are you looking for a great research project for your students?

This fun, hands on, research project makes cross curricular links with Language Arts and Math and is fully aligned with the Common Core Standards.

This 22 page unit pack contains all you need for your students to complete a research project about pumpkins. I usually let my children work with a partner. I model some or all of the pages, depending on my students' ability.

You can pick and choose what you'd like your students to complete or have them complete the entire research project pages. Some pages (including the writing prompt) are differentiated to accommodate a range of learners.

*Student Research Project Front Cover
