We wrapped up our apple experiment on Monday. I must say, the students LOVED this project and learned so much from it. However, I was not too sad when I said goodbye to these moldy little guys on Monday night after Open House! Speaking of Open House... I hope you enjoyed coming and checking out our classroom! You are always welcome to peek in if you are here - but it is nice to have a little time set aside to see what we have been working so hard on!
We really have been digging deep into some great non-fiction books to learn about apples, their life cycles, and interesting uses for the fruit. As part of our non-fiction focus in writing we have been learning the difference between facts and opinions. This can be an incredibly difficult concept for young learners so we got some practice in by sorting statements about apples.
