Apple Day!

Apple Day was a HUGE success! Thank you to the families who sent in apples to share! We started the day by carefully slicing 16 apples into itty bits, scraping them into a crock pot, adding a bit of sugar and water and cooking our apples to make apple sauce. It took ALL day, and we could hardly wait until the end of the day when it would be ready! Here's a couple students sampling the goods:


While we waited, we made apple patterns using real apple colors and crazy apple colors (blue and pink??). We also weighed our apples to see how many cubes they were equal to! Kamden took the prize for the heaviest apple weighing in at 70 cubes! We stacked cubes to measure how tall our apples were and found that even our heaviest apples were the same height as our lightest apples. All in all, we had a GREAT day... and the applesauce was awesome!
