The best thing about being back home is easy access to a nearly unlimited source of apples. We've learned about apples all week this week!
This week we read several books about apples including Apple Trouble and Up, Up, Up It's Apple Picking Time! We picked our apples straight from the apple tree and made a graph of the different types: Red Delicious, Yellow Delicious, and Johnathan apples. We also learned a new apple song!
5 (Red/Green/Yellow) apples hanging in a tree, juiciest apples I ever did see! I shook that tree as hard as I could--down came those apples, Mmmm they were good! Of course we count down (and then often up again) to practice our math skills.
We also worked on self help skills using an apple cutter to cut our apples!
We've eaten apples in many different ways...with cheese, peanut butter, and plain of course! Next week we are going to try making apple juice!
