Apples / Manzanas

One of the Neighborhood Apple Tree
Uno de los Arboles de Manzana del Vecindario

Hello,
Last week we learned about Apples. We played with apples, counted apples, drew apples, tasted apples and even saw 3 different apple trees. It was an apple filled week. We read many different books about Apples and the Schema chart was introduced to the class. Our Schema is all of the information that is in our brain and the chart is a chart where we write down all of the information we already know about (Apples) and then add to it during the week as we learn new things. It's safe to say that our schema about Apples grew a lot this past week. Ask your children questions about apples! We were so busy this past week that we did not take many pictures, but if you see our bulletin boards in the classroom when you drop your children off in the morning you will see all of our apple themed work.

This week we are learning about Fall!!! =)

Hola,

La semana pasada aprendimos de las Manzanas. Jugamos con manzanas, contamos manzanas, dibujamos manzanas y tambien vimos tres diferentes arboles de manzanas. Fue una semana llena de manzanas. Leimos differentes libros sobre las manzanas y introdujimos el diagrama del esquema. La esquema es toda la información en nuestro cerebro y el diagrama es donde escribimos toda esa información y le añadimos todo lo que aprendimos durante la semana, y fue mucho! Estuvimos tan ocupados esta semana que no sacamos muchas fotos pero durante la semana pueden mira los trabajos en la clase.

Esta semana estamos aprendiendo del Otoño! =)
