Pumpkin. We will then all make measurements of how many
inches our pumpkin is around. How many lines our pumpkins have. Estimated how many seeds are inside We will then make a graph of our estimated guess
and are findings.*You will be graded based on a
rubrics that I will go over so you understand what is expected of you.

This is a my Pumpkin. I guessed it had 16 lines, I then counted and it had 20. I then estimated it to be 18” around I then took my ruler and measured 15” around. I then took a wild guess and said that there would be 100 seeds in my Pumpkin. I was wrong there were only 75. This graph demonstrates my estimations and my findings. You will also be making your own Bar graphs and estimations.
