Last week we had a very "applelicious" week! On Tuesday, October 22nd we had an apple themed day. This event was held for all students in Kindergarten to Grade 2. The day started with all students listening to an apple story that was read by our vice principal, Mrs. Underhill. After the story, classes moved from classroom to classroom participating in different apple themed activities. In all students visited 6 different teachers and learned many new things about apples. We ended the day with the Big Crunch! The day was a huge success! A big thank you goes out to the grade 5 leaders who helped out in each of the classrooms. The 3 students I had in my class were great with the students and were able to share their knowledge of apples with the younger students. On Wednesday, we made homemade applesauce in the slow cooker. The students helped to peel the apples and measure out the ingredients. It took all day for the applesauce to finish cooking and we were very anxious to try it. It was delicious and many students enjoyed second helpings of our warm applesauce. Students took home the recipe to share with their families. I hope that some of you get the chance to try it out at home. Please check out our photos from these 2 great events!
