Apple Story Time: October 16-17, 2017

Books:
Apple Pie ABC by Alison Murray
Chicka Chicka 123 by Bill Martin Jr.
From Apple Trees to Cider, Please! by Felicia Sanzari Chernesky *
Tap the Magic Tree by Christie Matheson *
Ten Apples Up on Top! by Theo LeSieg*
The Terrible Plop by Ursula Durbosarsky

Craft: Apple
This weeks' craft was based on the picture above.  The children colored pre-cut apple tops and bottoms, leaf and stem.  They then glued them to ends three jumbo craft sticks making up the apple core.  Seeds could be colored on to the craft sticks.

Literacy Extensions:
- Go on a field trip to pick apples.
- Try different types of apples and see which kinds are your family's favorites.


Notes:
We found that the craft was easier to make if we taped the craft sticks together so they didn't move around while working with them.  We used masking tape at the top and bottom to tape them together.
