Happy Birthday Johnny!

We celebrated Johnny Appleseed's birthday by making applesauce on Thursday.  A student is using the apple peeler/corer/slicer to prepare the apple.  The sauce cooked in the crockpot for 4 hours and we ate it for snack.

Every day we write in our journals.  We can write about anything we choose: our thoughts and feelings, something we are excited about, or something that happened to us.

We got together with our 5th grade reading buddies from Mrs. Rosenberg's class.  It was music to my ears listening to all of the whispered reading throughout the room. :-)

 We used a great website, http://www.choosemyplate.gov/kids/   
to learn about the 5 food groups.  There are games as well as information about healthy eating.
