Our theme for this Fall unit is Trees, and over the last several weeks, we have learned about trees that live year round, tree bark, sap & syrup, acorns, leaves and today, for our last session in this unit, we studied apple trees.
After a quick lesson, we got right into our activities. Snack was available at the market today – apple juice, applesauce and apples the kids could cut with their kid-safe knives. I also had pom-poms and felt strips available for homemade apple pie.
Our other activity was to paint apples. Slice in half, paint the inside and press to paper.
And to wrap up the unit, we celebrated with apple pie! 🙂
