Digging up potatoes
Digging up potatoes in the garden this morning was hard work! Digging up potatoes is like finding a little treasure!
Apple science
Mrs. Bertsch turned into an apple today to teach the children some apple facts, sing a song about apples in a tree, and read a story about a big apple.
We learned the parts of an apple, the life-cycle of an apple from seed to tree, and how the star of seeds inside is the same shape as the blossom. We tasted and graphed our favorite out of 3 kinds of apples, and talked about products made from apples.
Sunflower seeds
Pluck seeds out of one of the giant sunflowers from our garden. It’s a fun fine motor activity!
Sweeping
