Apples Galore!

Pre-K LOVES apples! We had so much fun exploring apples! We read and listened to fiction and non-fiction stories, read apple poems, counted apples, made apples and taste tested apples! Check it out below....
Some of our apple books and learning about the lfe cycle of an apple!
Cutting and matching to put together our apple name puzzles!

Apple name puzzle finished products! We even made sure to include all of the parts of an apple!

Watching a life cycle of an apple on Scholastic....
Reading about apples in Scholastic Magazine!
5 Little Apples Poem
                                             
Counting as we add the 5 little apples to the tree!


Making our fingers stronger (to get ready for cutting and writing) by tearing paper....
and gluing...

to create our own red, green or yellow apple with the skin, stem and leaf!

We read "Ten Apples Up On Top" by Dr. Seuss and tried to build our own 10 apples up on top!








We almost did it!
A yummy "apple pie" treat (thanks Ms. Tenk and Mrs. D!) made with cut up apples and cinnamon,crumbled graham crackers and whipped cream...DELISH!  

We were scientists and used our senses for an apple taste test! We tested red delicious, granny smith and yellow delicious.
Pre-K really enjoyed these yummy apples! 
Do you see the star inside?
Learning about the different apple parts!

and now for the taste test....





YUM! YUM!
Each student decided on their favorite apple and colored an apple accordingly!




Our "Which Apple Did You Like The Best?" Chart

Each student voted and we counted each column....
Granny Smith for the win!!!
To end our apple unit....we made apple prints by cutting apples in half and took turns stamping with paint!
What a cool activity!

We had so much fun with apples and, of course, learned a lot too!
Ask your child about our apple activities!
Remember....an apple a day keeps the doctor away! :)

Thanks for visiting the Pre-K Post...come back soon!
xoxo
