Apples!

This week for our homeschool, our theme is apples!  We've read several great books including Ten Apples Up On Top by Dr. Suess, The Apple Pie Tree by Zoe Hall, and The Seasons of Arnold's Apple Tree by Gail Gibbons.  We've made apple prints, and yesterday made a delicious apple pie!  Today during lunch, we all tried four different varieties of apples.  Daddy's favorite was the red delicous, Zane's was the golden delicious, Rachel's was the green apple (Granny Smith)-it was sooo tart, I was surprised she ate it and wanted more, and my favorite was the Honeycrisp!  It was so fun comparing them!

Making Apple Prints

She was funny.  She painted in the same place over and over!


Reading Ten Apples Up on Top

Glue sticks are the best!!!

Gluing "A" pictures.

Taking turns is hard, but we did it!  Rolling out the bottom pie crust.


Pinching the top crust!

Turned out to be yummy!  Zane loves apple pie!
