Apple Week

We picked out of this apple and we retold the Very Hungry Caterpillar story.

This week we used this sheet as our guide.  I used a smelly green apple marker and the kids traced to make the letters. 

I used this one from HERE:

We worked on this sheet during small groups. Some groups didn't complete the sheet, and some did.

One of my smartie-frogs said that they should color the letter the color on the apple- BRILLIANT!

I love that idea and hope to remember that the next time!

At the end, I gave them a smiley face in green apple smelly marker. The children put their papers in their folders.

At the end of our week, we got out our 3 crayons to match the apple colors: red/green/yellow and made a graph of our favorite color apples based on the apple that each child brought.

Here is our apple-pie making station:

There are little cards on a ring for the kids to make different recipes.

This also tells me, I need more pom poms lol this was one bag each of red, green, and yellow from Discount School Supply.   I used small mini-pie plates.

Here is a magnetic apple board.

These were only some of the ideas we had this week.  I will see what else I can find :)

Making Shapes

You all know I love my glue sponge,

but this called for a bottle!

Colored corn writing

Smelly markers make writing so much fun!

I used my oil drip pan here.

I added an alphabet line from Dollar Tree.

I put the food magnets inside the frog cookie jar.

We pulled a letter out and put it in the LeapFrog fridge.

Then found the letter on the line to match.

We put the food magnets back into the frog cookie jar.

Pulled them out and put them on the plate correctly.

We made sandwiches.

We stacked cups on the light table.

Paper pizzas

 Harvest Stew

Apple pies 

Lacing food

Cookie letters

Bread in a bag

Pretty easy and tasted okay.

We don't use salt normally, so the only salt we had was from the salt tray lol
