Here's a little bit about what we have been doing this past week! We are looking forward to our trip to the apple orchard on Friay:)

LITERACY

Apple Flannel Board Stories:

 Way Up High In the Apple Tree and Apple Tree

The kids loved writing a story, this was a suggested activity from Funshine. They helped me fill in the blanks and I will say I was impressed that they did so good! We are definately going to have to do more of these! 

 Here is an activity that we've been doing to help with name recgonition. The song goes, "If your name is on the tree, pick it please. If your name is on the tree, pick it please.."

MATH

 

This was a game from Funshine, we had to match up the seeds to the number. We concentrated on the numbers 1-3 as those are our numbers for the month. 

 

We also played the Where's the Worm? game from Funshine. We had to turn over the apple cards and try to find the worms. 

SCIENCE:

Checking out an apple and describing the apple. We also tasted the apple!

 

ART

The cute apple/worm puppet from Funshine! The kids loved having the worm on their fingers. The other is just a worm and an apple

We decorated felt shaped leaves to hang up for our fall bunting... I think it turned out pretty cute!

 We worked on our name recgonition by putting circle (shape of the month!) stickers on the first letter of our name

 

This is one of our annual projects that we do! Way Up High in the Apple Tree...

 Making apple pies from Funshine

We talked about the different seasons for an apple tree and made this cute little project.

Attempted to have the kids try weaving from our Funshine supplies. It was too hard for them to do but we will keep working at it!
