Making our own apple book!

Making  creative apples - using yarn and a pipe cleaner.  Most people decided to made red or green apples.   Three people decided to make yellow apples.

Learning centre time fun!  The train track was a big success, the children are now beginning to login and find the programs that are bookmarked on the computers and the lego is used every day!

Extra apple jobs .. count the apples click a clothespin on the number, using tongs, a clothespin or chop sticks place apples on the trees.  Find the apples with the correct number of seeds, tally marks and the number to go on the apple ten frames.

Fun at Arlington Orchard!




The Dennis Farm ... we have never seen so many chickens!

KA and KB got together to make applesauce .. First we washed the apples, then peeled and diced put them in a pot with water and cooked them.  Mashed the apples and added sugar and cinnamon.  Delicious!
