Happy Johnny Appleseed Day!

 

 

 

Yesterday was the first day of Fall and today we celebrated Johnny Appleseed Day!!!  We learned that Johnny Appleseed's real name was John Chapman and he lived a long, long time ago.  We made hats to remind us that Johnny Appleseed wore a pot on his head and had a "secret" apple taste test to see which color apple tastes the best.....(by secret I mean we peeled the apples and labeled the plate underneath, so the children chose their favorite apple by taste alone.)  As you can see "Granny Smith Green" was our favorite.

Then we made "personal apple pizzas.'  They were yummy and the perfect way to end to a rainy school day.  We totally loved the fact that we made our very own pizza with biscuits, cinnamon sugar and fresh apples.  Plus we had a secret ingredient - cheddar cheese.  You can see from the "thumbs up" that we pretty much LOVED this tasty treat.

 

 

 

 

 

And we also made these gorgeous stained glass coloring projects!  I think everyone did such a wonderful job staying in the lines and taking their time.
