// Curriculum Update for Week of Sept. 17 //

This week we’ve started a new study on one of our favorite fall fruits — apples! Some of the children have taken recent trips to local farms or the farmers market with their families and have been noticing that it’s the season for apple picking. This week we learned a brand new song about the lifecycle of the apple, read The Apple Pie Tree by Zoe Hall, opened up an apple and named all of its parts, learned to wedge and slice apples, planted some apple seeds in the park, and shared a taste of a Red Delicious apple during circle time. We’re looking forward to continuing this study over the next couple of weeks!
