They loved making apple prints. We read the short story "The Red House with no windows, no doors and a star" |

We predicted which apples would be our favourite! McIntosh apples came in first, then Gala, Red Delicious and Granny Smith! |

We made our 10 apples up on top based on Dr. Seuss' Ten Apples Up On Top! They loved this and loved seeing themselves! |

Todd Parr! Love his books! |
Also, my SA won a free visit from Fin to our classroom and school! We are so stoked and happy! The students are so lucky this year. I hope to come back and help out when he arrives!
