This week we began our unit on plants. We learned why leaves change color in the fall. We learned about the different parts of the plant and what each part does. We read The Seasons of Arnold's Apple Tree and made apple sauce. We made it in a crock pot and in student-made solar ovens! Then we compared the two. The students enjoyed the activity and learned a great deal. The students dressed in costume and paraded around the campus in their various costumes. November has finally arrived and we'll be focusing on our plant unit and adding and subtracting two-digit numbers in the coming weeks.
