Apple Green, Apple Red

Apple Hit Me On The Head.





I am a preschool teacher. That's right. I said it. Tomorrow I will start a unit on Apples. Apples are so handy. You can use them for so many things. They are great teaching tools. Apples have seeds. We can count the seeds. Apples come in different colors and shapes too. We can sing apple songs. We can talk about Johnny Appleseed. We can eat apples. We can cut an apple in half and use the halves as stamps for apple prints. Then we can talk about fractions. We can read books about apple picking. We can talk about taste and texture. We can compare and observe. We can put apples in a basket and we can take the apples out of the basket. Apple start with the letter "A". Little "a" looks like an apple. We can watch an Apple dry out and turn brown. We can put lemon juice on another apple to see what happens overnight. The possibilities are endless.





By the End Of The Week, I will most likely have Had My Fill Of Apples.

You can throw crab apples at the neighbor kids who keep climbing in your trees!
