Poppins Book Nook #8: Autumn Fun Find

October 28, 2013 By: amyswandering3 Comments

autumn fun find printable

It is time once again for Poppins Book Nook and this month’s theme is Seasons!

Autumn is my favorite season, so OF COURSE that is what we focused on ;). I made an Autumn Find worksheet for Sweetpea to do after we talked about the different seasons. It was interesting to look at the seasons on a preschool level so she would recognize them.

autumn fun find sample

I brainstormed a few words for each season:

~Winter~

  • cold
  • darker
  • scarf & mittens
  • snow (well, before we moved to Florida LOL)
  • sledding
  • hot chocolate
  • Christmas
  • New Year’s Eve

~Spring~

  • flowers
  • rain
  • windy
  • kites
  • warmer
  • green leaves
  • Easter

~Summer~

  • hot
  • sunny
  • beach
  • swimming
  • vacation
  • water balloons
  • watermelon
  • popsicles
  • Fourth of July

~Autumn~

  • falling leaves
  • cooler
  • back to school
  • squirrels
  • acorns
  • pumpkins
  • Halloween
  • Thanksgiving

These are a few of the Autumn books we enjoy:

October Math Poems

October Math Poem Worksheets

It is time once again for Poppins Book Nook and this month’s theme is School! Hmmm, that’s a tricky one for homeschoolers, so we decided to go with an education theme.

One of the books we have loved over the years is Mathematickles!, a book of Math poems found in nature.

mathematickles

Mathematickles! takes words, math, and seasons, and rolls them all up into beautiful word pictures. For example:

“holes + nuts – nuts = squirrel hide & seek”

and

“maple leaves + puddle = crimson ships”

I love how these poems combine creativity with logic, so I made an October Math Poem worksheet to help my kids create some seasonal poetry equations of their own.

October Math Poems Printable

A few of the ones we wrote:

stick + sticky – dental fillings = caramel apple

1/3 moonlight + 1/3 sunset + 1/3 sunrise = candy corn

pumpkin ÷ imagination = jack o’ lantern

trick x treat = candy ’til Easter

Feel free to download the October Math Poems worksheet, and PLEASE share some of your creations in the comments!!

Each month the Poppins Book Nook members will be hosting a book giveaway. This month it is for It’s Back to School We Go!: First Day Stories from Around the World. The giveaway is open to US residents only.
