Pumpkin Book Reports

WOW!  I am blown away by my talented students (and their awesomely supportive parents)!  When the other fourth grade teachers and I decided we wanted our first report to be focused on character traits, I chose to go in my own direction and incorporate pumpkins for two reasons: 1. It's October!  2. I wanted my students to let their creativity shine.  Having never assigned this book report before, I had no how amazing they would be, but my students far exceeded my expectations, as usual.  They also did a great job presenting their characters and telling about their books.  Here's a look at their pumpkins...
