Friendship Applesauce
9/21/2018
This week we explored what it means to be a good friend. We answered questions such as "How do friends share?" and "How do we treat each other at school?" During Morning Meeting, Read Alouds, Center Play, Small Groups, and our Closing Circles, we looked at the ways we interact and practiced being good friends. We talked about sharing and fair ways to play, using our words to be kind, listening when our friends are telling us something, and how to fix problems we may have with our friends. We took turns playing follow the leader and learned a new song which helped us practice asking friends "come play with me!" On Friday we made friendship applesauce. At circle we talked about how each student's apple was different; different colors, different sizes, and different tastes, but that together all these unique apple can make some really wonderful applesauce. Then we made a graph of our apples' colors and counted the apples. The students then washed and cut their apples and put them in the pot. After cooking, we used my grandmother's food mill to press the soft apples to applesauce. It was really delicious!
