Apple Star

Today we listened to a story about the apple star. The apple seeds can be found inside this star. Then we cut open an apple and checked out the star!!! We think that is pretty cool!

We used fruit manipulatives to make patterns!  Check these out!

Sharing time ---  things that are red!

 Mrs. Macdonell, the Resource Teacher, came to visit us today. She told us that we are going to be getting a visit from a  little teacher next week. His name is Jacob, and he was born on July 22, 2013. Jacob and his mom are going to help teach us about empathy, through a program called  ROOTS OF EMPATHY.
They will be visiting us every month. We will also meet with Mrs. Macdonell before and after the visit from Jacob. Today we guessed what we thought maybe baby Jacob can do. We don't know for sure, but we will ask his mom next week. We also guessed if we thought baby Jacob would be the same size as the doll, or smaller than, or bigger than the doll. During a  Roots of Empathy lesson, we sit around a green blanket. This is where baby Jacob will go when he visits us. We are SO excited to meet him next week. 

Apples

Did you know there are a LOT of different kinds of apples?  We noticed there are apples with  different colours, shapes, and sizes..... and different tastes.  Today we tasted 8 different kinds of apples. We liked all of them, although a few people thought there were a couple that tasted a little sour to them.  Here's a few pictures of some of the kinds we sampled.....
