A Read Aloud by Our NEW Assistant Principal
Mrs. Mitchell, our new assistant principal, came in Friday morning to read to us. She continually praised my class on what good listeners they were and how she couldn't believe she was in a first grade class.
I love how enthralled my students become with read alouds.
Thanks for taking the time to come in and we believe you can learn all 560 students' names!!

Apple Taste Test and Our Pumpkin Family
On Friday we had an apple product taste test. Students tried a variety of apple products and decided which one they liked best.
Here are some pics.
We also conducted two experiments. First we made observations on an apple with skin and one without. They drew pictures each day of what they looked liked and how they changed.
Students also worked with a buddy to figure out if ALL apples have the same amount of seeds.

I also painted some pumpkins this weekend!! Paint markers are the BEST. One will be given away each week by estimating the closest circumference. I can't wait to see who gets to take one home!!

Apple Orchard Fun
We had a blast at the apple orchard and were able to see/do SO much! From picking apples and pumpkins, feeding the goats, seeing the horses, to the hay ride, cider, warm donuts, and beautiful weather we couldn't have asked for anything more.
Enjoy the pics below!!
And of course here's one of Ellie our pup!

Apple Diagrams
We've been learning a lot about apples so we're ready for our field trip on Thursday. We made apple diagrams and labeled the parts. Kids COULD NOT use scissors and had to tear the paper to create their very own unique apple!
And one last pic of our pup Ellie with her new super hero toy Batman. We're hoping the good vibes rub off on her spunky personality!! She has actually been a REALLY easy puppy and hasn't gotten into too much trouble yet.
