Hello NCES Stars!! We are so excited to announce that we will have a Pumpkin Book Decorating Contest for the school this year. Pumpkins are to be decorated to look like your student’s favorite book character!
Guidelines are below:
- Choose a character from a book that you have read or want to read. It does not have to be a book from the NCES library.
- You may use real pumpkins (do not carve), gourds, or fake pumpkins! Fake pumpkins are a great decoration to use for the fall season😊 (If pumpkins start to go bad they will be thrown out)
- Your disguised pumpkin should have distinctive traits from the literary character and should be easily identifiable.
- NO scary pumpkins!!(this includes anything gory, fake blood, etc….)
- Use EVERYDAY materials to bring your Literary Pumpkin “to life”. (Examples: acrylic paint, cotton, yarn, markers, google eyes, pipe cleaners, etc.….)
- Please do not carve pumpkins or poke holes in the pumpkin (due to rotting or smell).
- Add a label showing the character’s name and book title to be displayed with the pumpkin. Please have the students name, teacher, and grade level on the paper😊
- Use your imagination and HAVE FUN!!!
- Pumpkins need to be picked up October 28th or they will be sent home with students on the 31st.
