The kindergarten students at Great Neck Road Elementary School are jumping into fall with lessons themed around pumpkins, apples and leaves.

After reading “The Leaf Thief,” students created their own leaf-shaped suncatchers in all the autumn colors. The suncatchers will hang on the classroom window and reflect the season’s colors into the room. Kindergartners also used apples to measure each other and counted how many apples they had to add or subtract to cover the height of their classmates. The students also used paper plates to create and decorate their own pumpkins. The kindergarten students cut out the inner circle of the plate so they could become the pumpkin’s face.
