Yummy Apples

 Hello

Last week we worked on a fun apple theme.

Some of my kiddos have been apple picking, so it was great chance to work on this theme for Fall.

We talked about all the different colours of apples, how they taste and we saw the star that is hidden in the middle of the apple.  The kids love that!!  If you cut the apple in the middle, you can see it too.

So here's what we did last week.

Worm in the Apple

I cut an apple shape from a paper plate then we glued on some red tissue paper squares (great fine motor activity).  Using the holes I had cut in the paper plate I used them for the worm.  Fold the cut away circles in half and glue together over a piece of string.  The kids can sew the worm through the holes.

'A' is for Apple

I simply cut out an apple shape and the kids coloured them.  We glued 3 of them together and glued them onto a piece of white paper.  We added the white center of the apple and gave it some seeds in a star shape.

Happy Apples 

This was a cut print out I found.  Colour, cut and put together to make a 3D bowl.

Just a simple, fun little apple.

Way up High in the Apple Tree

Here is a fun apple tree we made while learning our song.  

Here it is:

Way up high in the apple tree,

Two little apples looked at me.

I shook the tree as hard as I could,

Down fell the apples, mmmm they tasted good.

And finally a few other things we did too...busy hands are happy hands.

some cutting practice

Stringing....great fine motor.

If you don't have any beads, try using some pasta with holes in it or some Cheerios.

Colouring leaves of course.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
