Apples was our classroom theme last week. We learned all about how an apple starts out as a tiny seed. That tiny little seed gets planted in the dirt and we make sure it gets watered. With all the love and care, the seed will grow into a big tree that will produce the apples that we eat. Inside each apple are more apple seeds to start the process all over again so we won't ever run out of apples! One of our projects this week was creating our own apple tree and counting as many apples as we could to go on our tree. Mrs. Knudsen brought in some apples for snack time and we each were able to take a turn with the apple peeler. This was a BIG hit with everyone! The apple peeler not only peeled the apple for us, but cut the apple in a circle and made the apple look like a spring. We all thought it was hilarious when the "apple spring" jumped right out of Mrs. Knudsen's hands and onto the floor!!! Our other project this week was taking a half of an apple that Mrs. Knudsen cut in half and dipping it in red paint. It was a lot of fun to paint with our apples too!
We all go to Mrs. Southard individually to do our projects each day. While patiently waiting for her to call us over, we have so much fun playing with different things in our classroom each day. We are all playing together and creating new things with our new friends. The pictures below are just a couple of our favorite things to do together while we wait for our project time.
