The past few weeks we have been learning all about apples! We have been learning about their life cycle, how an apple tree changes throughout the year, apple facts, what we can make with apples, and about the apple parts. Ms. Kempke has also been incorporating our apple theme into her speech groups too, and they have been delicious!
Here are some pictures of what we have been working on in class!
We made apples out of a paper plate! We glued real apple seeds in the center!
Here we used our arm and hand print in brown paint to make the apple trunk and branches. Then, depending on what season you chose, you decorated your tree with leaves, apples, snow, or flowers.
(Starting from top left working clockwise: winter, spring, fall, summer)
This recipe was a big hit! We scooped out small apple balls and then dipped them in melted butterscotch chips and then dipped them again into sprinkles!

This activity was fun too! We learned all about the word hypothesis! We made a smart guess at how many seeds were in our apple. After we wrote down our hypothesis we picked the apple seeds out of our apple to find out if we were right. We knew our hypothesis would be close because apples can have up to ten seeds inside them!
