Confession: I am writing this part of the blog a weekend later and the cool fall temps have left us.With September passing by quickly our class dove right into a fall unit. This past week we did a mini unit on Johnny Appleseed. We started out with tasting three types of apples: red, green, and yellow. Then we created a class graph based on our favorite type of Apples. The next day we watched a Brainpop Jr video on Johnny, where we learned many tall tales about him. After that we created an anchor chart with facts about Johnny. Last, each student wrote their own facts and created their own Johnny Appleseed! All in all it was a big hit and the kids loved tasting, learning and writing about Johnny Appleseed!
