Apples! Apples! Apples!
On Wednesday we celebrated Johnny Appleseed Day by doing a lot of activities featuring...apples! We made applesauce in a crockpot and tasted three different kinds of apples (Red Delicious, Granny Smith, Golden Delicious). After tasting the apples we took a vote to see which apple was the class favorite. It was close but Red Delicious was the class favorite (by one vote).
In the afternoon we learned about the life cycle of an apple and made our very own Johnny Appleseed hats! It was a great day!
Literacy Centers

This week in Math we've been working in new centers. We have also been practicing our shapes and creating patterns with our pattern blocks!
Choice Time
Our favorite part of the day!
