Fruits and Veggies

Today we dug in the sand for a fruit and veggie excavation! The students got to use the sand tables to find the hidden fruits and veggies and then rotated to two math centers. 

Our sand tables

 



 

The first math center was an apple counting center.  The kids read the number and color off of their cards and counted out the corresponding apples to create their Apple Counting Books. (Anyone see a theme emerging?)

 

 

 

 

When they finished their books, they moved on to the apple measuring table.  Using cubes, they measured the height of their apples.  They also measured circumference with a string.  Best of all, they measured themselves by lining up next to our apple line.

 

We finished our day with a delicious healthy snack of....you guessed it! Apples!
