APPLES,
APPLES, APPLES
WE
FOCUSED ON APPLES THE LAST TWO WEEKS OF SEPTEMBER.
OUR OT DID AN APPLE STAMPING
PROJECT. THE STUDENTS USED FORKS THAT WERE PUSHED INTO APPLES TO MANIPULATE
PAINTING ON THE PAGE.
WHICH
APPLE IS YOUR FAVORITE?
WE GRAPHED OUR FAVORITE APPLE BUY PICKING THE DESIRED COLOR PRESENTED. SOME STUDENTS WERE ABLE TO CHOOSE FROM A FIELD OF THREE, WHILE OTHERS NEEDED TO MAKE TWO CHOICES TO DETERMINE THEIR ANSWER.
ALL
ABOUT ME: JOHNNY APPLESEED
WE
READ A FEW BOOKS ABOUT JOHNNY APPLESEED AND THEN PICKED CARDS WITH FACTS ABOUT
JOHNNY FROM A BASKET. EACH TIME THE STUDENTS WOULD PICK A CHOICE; WE WOULD READ
IT, TALK ABOUT WHAT IT MEANT, AND WRITE IT ON THE CHART.
LABEL
IT: APPLE
WE
LABELLED THE PARTS OF AN APPLE. THE STUDENTS WERE
GIVEN A SLIP WITH A NAME
AND ASKED TO FIND THAT
PART ON THE CHART.
SIMPLY
SPECIAL ED HAS FANTASTIC ADAPTED BOOKS FOR SEPTEMBER. THE PICTURE CHOICES WERE
DISPLAYED AND PRESENTED TO THE STUDENTS IN A FIELD OF TWO OR THREE. WE USED
BOTH LEVELS 1 AND 2 OF JOHNNY APPLESEED.

CROCKPOT APPLESAUCE
THE STUDENTS HELPED PUT THE INGREDIENTS IN THE CROCKPOT AND WE LET IT COOK FOR FOUR HOURS. (IT SAID SIX... BUT LETS BE REAL WE DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF TIME.) THEN, THE STUDENTS USED AN ADAPTED SWITCH TO BLEND THE INGREDIENTS IN THE CROCKPOT (MINUS THE LEMON PEEL AND CINNAMON STICK) TO MAKE APPLESAUCE.
IT WAS DELICIOUS!!! SOME OF THE STUDENTS EVEN REQUESTED MORE!
YOU CAN FIND THE RECIPE HERE:
Hi! Loved that you made apple sauce with your kiddos. I was planning on using your recipe. Did you add any water? Or did you only use the ingredients that were listed on the chart paper?
ReplyDeleteThanks!
We only used the ingredients on the recipe! Hope your kids liked it as much as mine!
