Apple day was so much fun! We all dressed up in apple colors, and the students had their mouths watering as they prepared to taste test 17 different kinds of apples - yep, that's right. 17 different kinds!!!
Before we tasted them, we wrote down some words that described what each apple looked like on the outside, and what made each of them different.
Then came the fun of taste testing all of the apples, and describing what each tasted like. It was amazing to taste all the differences of each apple! I think most of us were on serious apple overload by the time we were done!
Mrs. Lytle showed the students how to make apple crisp. At the end of the day, we all got to sample that warm, crunchy, apple goodness. :-)
We then did a fun project making cinnamon applesauce ornaments. You mix together cinnamon, applesauce and glue into a dough. Then you flatten it and press a cookie cutter into the dough. In a few more days, the ornaments will be hardened, and we will be able to decorate them.
Our final activities of Apple day included singing Apple songs, hearing stories about "If I were an apple" (stay tuned for that in the next post), and playing an Apple matching game.
