While studying the ❺ 🅢🅔🅝🅢🅔🅢, KINDERGARTEN used their eyes to observe, hands to feel, noses to smell, and ears to listen as they explored all things apples. 👀👂👃🖐️👅

Then came the sweetest part — tasting apple slices with caramel, applesauce, and apple juice! 🍏🧃

Learning is always sweeter when we get to explore, create, and taste along the way! 🍎✨

Our 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 had a “p̠e̠e̠l̠-̠i̠n̠g̠” good time exploring all things apples!🍏🍎

From tasting delicious apple slices and peeling apples to making homemade applesauce, our students enjoyed hands-on learning that brought the season to life. They even learned about the legendary Johnny Appleseed and his love for planting apple trees! 🌳

Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Ivy, Mrs. Fitts, and Mrs. Shrontz had a friendly applesauce making competition and the judges, Mrs. Register and Mrs. Shelton, said the winner for best tasting applesauce goes to…🥁🥁 — MRS. Smith!! 🥇
