At circle time today we read Amazing Apples, it described all the details of apple trees and how they grow their fruit! In our first small group, we practiced our fine motor skills by ripping up red construction paper and gluing it to a paper plate to make apples. We even added a stem and a leaf. In our second group, we identified numbered baskets and used ink to put that many fingerprint apples in each basket. In our last group, we made an apple volcano! We worked together to put baking soda, vinegar, and water color inside a cored out apple. We talked about the reaction we saw and whether it changed the apple or not. Today was a wonderful day!
