This week is all about apples in our classroom. We started today about different things we already know about apples. We cut apples in half and stamped them with red and green paint onto our paper. Some made a star and some didn't. It was messy fun!
What is our favorite type of apple. Our winner was Green! The kiddos loved trying the different kinds of apples.
We started by talking about what we already knew about apples.
We also made applesauce. This was my first time making it and it went GREAT!
Crockpot Applesauce
*10 Peeled and cored apples
*1/2 cup water
*1 cup sugar
*1/2 tsp cinnamon
We cooked the apples on high for 4 hours. Then I turned it down to keep warm for about 30 minutes. Through out this time I had the students come up and mash the apples. We used a potato masher. I had them do this every 30 minutes. It turned out fantastic.
We did a graphing activity afterward to tell if we liked it or not! We had 17 likes and 4 dislikes!
