Apple Time!!


We have been SO busy in kindergarten that I can’t stop posting pictures and videos. I am just so proud of how hard all of these great kids have been working!!! Last week we learned about apples….and we tasted A LOT of apple stuff!!!!! First, we talked about how an apple tree grows. First, we plant a seed, then comes a sprout, then a tree, and finally APPLES!!! Next, we made an apple and labeled all of its parts. Ask your smart kid where the core of the apple is, where the stem and leaf are, where the seeds are, and where the skin is!! I bet they can tell you! We also did an apple investigation (such a big word!) We each got to pick a red or green apple. Then we weighed our apple, measure how tall it was, and stamped the apple. We also tasted lots of apple stuff (bread, gum, apple sauce, apple jacks, apple pie, apple juice, and apples). Most of us LOVED everything, but there were a few sour faces! We even made Johnny Appleseed hats!! On Friday we enjoyed the beautiful weather and played some apple games. We pinned apples on a tree, rolled apples down a slide, dug for sight words, had apple races, and threw apple bean bags. We had so much fun!!!
