Pumpkin Facts and Quiz

In the spirit of the fall season, This week we read the story Pumpkins by Mark Ormerod. It  provides some interesting facts on how pumpkins grow.

The second part of this book is " A pie for Miss Potter" . We can learn how to make an apple pie. Nothing is as American as learning how to make apple pie, especially during the fall season.  It´s interesting, isn´t it? .
