Apple STEM and Baking!

Today was a really busy day in Room 2. We started the day with a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) activity involving apples. The challenge was to make a container that had a handle that could hold 3 apples while the kids walked 10 steps. The kids had a great time working together to try to make the best container they could. After lunch, we made applesauce. The kids worked hard to core, peel, and cut apples. We put them in the crockpot and will enjoy a snack tomorrow morning. The last activity of the day was making mini apple pies. We enjoyed our pies while we watched a video about Johnny Appleseed.
