My students really enjoyed this activity. I love that you included multiple ways to use the product which means all of my students could find an access point!

I used this resource to have my students decorate a real pumpkin. They loved using the dice to roll and find the design that they would use to decorate each section of the pumpkin.

I used this during our “Fun Friday” art time, and the students loved it. They were so proud of the final outcome.
My kiddos always love to do these roll and create artworks!
My students loved being able to make their unique pumpkins.
I used this pumpkin art activity as a center in my KĆ5 library classes. The older kids really enjoyed it and had fun picking patterns and designing their pumpkins. The younger kids (KĆ2) struggled a bit with the patterns, but they liked using the pumpkins that already had designs on them. It was easy to set up, and the video and templates made it even simpler. Overall, a fun fall project that worked well for my older grades!
I love this fall project. My students have enjoyed doing this project. They always turn out so nice.
