All About Apples!
Yesterday was Johnny Appleseed's birthday! We spent the day learning that so much about Johnny Appleseed and apples! We learned that Johnny Appleseed's real name was John Chapman. We also learned the stories are based on a true person; however. the details have been exaggerated as the stories have been passed down (a genre we call a Tall Tale). In math, we created ten-frame hats similar to the hat Johnny was said to have worn, and in science we explored apples with our five senses! We explored the parts of an apple (e.g. core, flesh, stem, skin) and compared/contrasted the tastes of red, yellow, and green apples. We graphed our favorite tasting apple and composed a writing piece. It was definitely a busy, fun-filled day! :) Please click on the Smilebox to see more of our apple adventure!
