Apple Fun!

 The students had fun learning about John Chapman (A.K.A. Johnny Appleseed).  We read several books and watched some interesting videos about his life.  Fun fact:  Johnny Appleseed did not wear a pot on his head!

To finish our study of Johnny Appleseed, we made homemade applesauce.  The students enjoyed the delicious treat!  The applesauce received many thumbs up!
