Do pumpkins sink or float?


2 comments:

  1. Jordan says that pumpkins float. He admits he is being silly but believes pumpkins float because they are orange. We found this video and wanted to share it with everyone in Room 202. It starts getting really interesting around 1:20.

      Thank you for the video! We could not believe that people were using pumpkins as boats! We think that those big pumpkins were floating because they took the seeds out. We also think that if you left the seeds in the pumpkin that it would sink. We cannot wait to research more about pumpkins this week. Do you think we might change our minds?

      Love,
