Note to Mom

Hi Mom! Thanks for downloading my Literature Unit. I wrote this book study for

the child. He or she should be able to work on it almost independently. There are

few things I need you to do.

Supplies:

1 Pumpkin

1 Bible (the version of your family’s choice)

Carving Knife (to cut the top of the pumpkin off)

1 copy of “How Many Seeds in a Pumpkin?” (check the library)

2 Bowls (1 for the pulp and 1 for seeds)

Spoons or ice cream scooper (help with cleaning the pulp/seeds)

Cookie sheet (something long enough for the seeds to dry on)

Your child will need 1 pumpkin. The size does not matter. If you have more than 1

child; 1 pumpkin will still suffice. But consider a larger size the more children you

have completing the unit study. The size of the bowls should be paired to the size

of the pumpkin you choose. On Day 3, your child will need your help drying seeds.

You can set them in the oven, sit them outside in the sun, or let them air dry on

the counter overnight. You will also need to cut the top of the pumpkin for your

child. It may be best to have the kitchen trash can empty and close by for easy

disposal.

The symbols in this study are very helpful to you and your child. Here are

there meanings:

Day 1: Pre-Reading

Before begin reading, let’s label our book. Write the words on the

correct line. Here’s your word bank:

Front cover Title

Back cover Illustrator

Author Spine

Day 1 (Continued): Book Hunt

Pre-Reading Hunt

Look through your book, and answer the following questions. Write “n/a” for any information the book does not provide.

Title: Author:

# of chapters: # of pages:

Illustrations?

Y or N

Copyright Date (©):

How old is the book? Illustrator:

Tip: To figure out how old the book is, subtract the copyright year from the

current year.

Note: Turn to the last page of your book. See Charlie’s Pumpkin Facts? You

will keep a log of your pumpkin facts too. Each day you will add 1 new fact.

Don’t worry; I will remind you. “Your Pumpkin Facts”Log is on the last page

of this unit study. Each time you see the red pumpkin, you will know to add

a fact.

That’s it for Day 1. See you tomorrow!

Day 2: Reading Pages 1-10

Hi! Are you ready to read? I hope you are; but before we begin let’s start thinking!

What do you think about when you hear the words

“autumn” or “fall?”

“How Many Seeds in a Pumpkin?” does not have page numbers listed in the

book. This means you will have to manually count. I lightly penciled in the page numbers

in my book so I could keep track. Ask your parent if you can do that.

Read pages 1-10 right now. You can read silently if you like or maybe you

want to read out loud to a younger sibling. It’s your choice.

Turn to page 1. Point to Charlie. How do you know that is him?

(You can read the paragraph on page 1 if you need help.)

In your reading today, there was a lot of talk about seeds. Let’s read God’s

Word to find out what He says about seeds.

Read Matthew 13:24.

Copy Matthew 13:24 in the space below. If you know how to write in cursive,

try that!

Write a fact in your Pumpkin Facts Log.



Hi! Are you ready to read? I hope you are; but before you begin let’s start thinking!

(You also have an activity to complete before you read today.)

Guess how many seeds are in your pumpkin.

______________________

Your mom or dad should already have a pumpkin, a bowl, and a spoon

or an ice cream scooper ready for you today. Have an adult cut the top

of your pumpkin. Use a spoon or an ice cream scooper to remove the

seeds and the pulp. Discard the pulp. Wash off your seeds and place

them in a bowl.

Read pages 11-16 right now. You can read silently if you like or maybe

you want to read out loud to a younger sibling. It’s your choice.

Think about the best way to count your seeds. Ones? Twos? Fives?

Tens?

Whichever way you decided, practice counting by that number today.

Note: Ask your mom to dry your seeds this evening. You will need

them tomorrow.

Read Psalm 51:10

In your activity today, you cleaned your pumpkin. As a Christian, you

should present a clean heart unto the Lord. Did you clean your

pumpkin well today? Is all the pulp and slime out? It should look like

this:

Is your heart clean like your pumpkin is? Do you have slime you need

to get out? If so, let’s do that right now!

Pray…

Father, forgive me for __________________________.

I want my heart clean for You. Just like David prayed, God create in

me a clean heart for You. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Copy Psalm 51:10 in the space below. If you know how to write in

cursive, try that!

How do you divide a number in half?

___________________________________________________

Read pages 17-24 right now. You can read silently if you like or maybe you

want to read out loud to a younger sibling. It’s your choice.

Look on page 19. The Two’s Club has 170 pairs of seeds. How many single

seeds is that? _____________________

What operation do you use to answer the question? _____________

Look on page 21. The Ten’s Club has 35 groups of 10. How many seeds is that?

___________ Can you count by 10s 35 times?

Think about the best way you chose to count seeds. Do

you still think it’s the best way? Do you want to change

your original plan?

Your mom or dad should have your dried seeds today. Get your bowl of

dried seeds and group them together on a cookie sheet by how you want to

count them. But wait and count them tomorrow.

Did you know that pumpkins grow on a vine? Who takes care of a garden or

a pumpkin patch? ___________________

Read John 15:1 to learn more about the Master Gardener.

Day 4 (continued): Reading Pages 17-24

Copy John 15:1 in the space below. If you know how to write in cursive,

try that!

Day 5: Reading Pages 25-end


Does the biggest pumpkin have the most seeds?

_______________________

Why would that seem likely?

____________________________________________________

____________________________________________________

Count your seeds today. How many do you have? ______________

Look back at Day 3. How many seeds did you guess? ___________

Subtract the difference and your record your answer. ____________

You did a lot of counting today! I want to tell you a Bible verse where God

says He does not count. You have to count in this life and there are many

times in Scripture where God even counts. He counts your days, He numbers

the hair on your head, and He counts the stars in the sky, just to name a few.

Read 2 Corinthians 5:18-20. The one thing God does not count is your

sin. That is great news! If you have trusted Jesus, He has reconciled

your sins for you.

Copy the following sentences:

If I have trusted Jesus Christ as my Savior, He reconciles my sins with

God. They do not count against me and that’s a true fact!

You’ve made it to end of Day 5! I hope you had a good time

learning more about God and the fall harvest of pumpkins!
