An Apple a Day

An Apple a Day helps us learn our A!

Thank you so much to all the parents who sent in the following items for our apple tasting and voting activities:  apple cider, apple juice, Apple Jacks cereal, apple butter, caramel for dipping our apples into, apple pie, and your child's favorite apple.  Funny story:  The moms who were helping on Friday said, "Um, Mrs. Berry, we aren't so sure you want to taste-test this pie because it's not an apple pie."  Me: "What??? It says 'Apple Pie' on it."  "Yes, but it isn't.  Publix put the wrong label on it!  Oh well.....But we certainly did appreciate S.Q.'s parents sending it in!  

American Symbols

PROUD to be AN AMERICAN!

Students spent Constitution Week learning about some American Symbols.  They really seemed to enjoy the projects and learning about them!  Ask your student what the Statue of Liberty, Liberty Bell, the flag, and the eagle stand for.  (Hint, hint: this will be on a Social Studies test sometime!)
