This a “dear” idea to celebrate the Fall Apple Harvest, encourage a nutritious snack, as well as a perfect symbol for “school.”  Have the children trace or tear a circle shape from red construction paper.  Cut a slit up and stop at the centre of the apple shape.  Overlap the edges and glue, creating a 3-D effect.   Using scraps of brown and green paper, cut out or tear a stem and leaf. Glue onto the apple.

• These apples are adorable when grouped together under a banner that reads, You Are the Apple of My Eye!

 

 

 

 

Ten Red Apples

Ten red apples grow on a tree

Five for you and five for me

Let us shake the tree just so

And then red apples will fall below

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

 

The Apple

Up in the apple tree

High off the ground,

I see an apple

So big and round

I climb up the tree

And hold on tight.

I pick that apple

And take a big bite!

M-m-m-m-m, Good!
