Apple Stamping and Basket Weaving

Today we talked about apples!
 First I taught them the song....sung to the tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
     "Apple, apple tree so tall,
       I can hardly wait til fall,
       When your apples I can pick,
       Fill my basket, eat them quick!
       Apple, Apple tree so tall,
       I can hardly wait til Fall!"
*perfect song I think since Fall weather doesn't truly come to our parts in September...and TK & K do apple projects in September. :)
 
First we made baskets and learned how to weave the paper!  Then we stamped the apples!

Today we are learning about lines and practicing drawing different kinds of lines!

We read:

We practiced straight lines, zig zag (mountain lines), wavy lines (like the ocean), curly & loopy lines, castle lines, and cloud or rainbow lines!

Each kid made their lines on their strips of paper and glued them onto a
 paper to make a magic carpet!
