Apple Green...Apple Red

What a yummy theme! This week we explored apples (and even got to taste them), worked on the Letter Aa, and the number 4. These little sponges are learning so much!

Thursday:
This sweet girl reading her favorite book to us, "Brown Bear, Brown Bear"

Our other star of the day! We took a selfie!

Painting our sweet apples...



Of course we can't forget an leaf hand print for our apples!!

Which kind of apple tasted best to you?

We made a graph and I was able to ask many higher level thinking math questions when we were done.  Some questions included: How many liked just the red and yellow? Which apples did the most prefer? How many kids tasted apple all together?

A perfect fine motor task...using tongs to pick up apples floating in the water.




These kiddos had an absolute blast!  Learning can be so much fun!

Peeling apple stickers for our A. Another grand fine motor task.


Our Aa 2 box sheet.

Staircase counting with apples. We added apples into each basket going up by one! I had these kiddos keep the apples so you could practice with them at home! This is a great way for them to use 1:1 counting and to develop their number sense.


Friday:
Tracing the letters Aa in applesauce. A fun way to make writing fun and incorporating sensory.


Volcano time! Let's make these apples erupt.



They LOVED this!

A sweet star of the day...

Another sweet star of the day!
I love learning about each of these kiddos!

Our apple craft. We will label the parts of the apple and send them home next week.


I loved this final product! Treasure these sweet hands!

Our fun snack...snack is yummy and educational!

We got to try some apple pie.



Adding apples to our trees. Each kiddo got to roll the dot cube and count the dots. We then counted out that many "apples" to add them to our tree. Concepts like this are pretty challenging...but these kiddos are super smart!


Great 1:1 counting!

Another great job counting!

Letter hunt!

These kiddos are amazing. We had a fun and yummy week!
