Apples, Fish, and Caterpillars!

In library this week we celebrated Johnny Appleseed's birthday by reading about his life in this book...
 
We also made our favorite tasting apples and hung them in the trees.... 
In K5 we made these apples


After reading The Rainbow Fish in K4 and K5... we made some fish... :)



Our caterpillars went with Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar.....

Apples!!

We started out the week with our apple trees waiting for their apples! We found out that it takes 5 years for an apple tree to produce its first fruit!
We made apples.
We also read 10 apples Up on Top and made our own apples up on top!
Then we made Deanna Jump apple sequence charts.

We read the story of the little red house with no doors and no windows and a star inside. A copy of this story can be found here.



We made applesauce. Yum!

       
At the end of the week we wore our Johnny Appleseed mush pot hats and tasted red, yellow, and green apples, and graphed which apples we like best.
