Some activities we will be doing are: “walking the letters” (literally walking on a poster-board sized letter to get a feel for how it is formed) reading poems with the letter’s sounds discussing what words begin with that letter and tracing/writing our letter of the week. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Each week we will learn a new letter of the alphabet (in order). Buy Picking Apples & Pumpkins by Hutchings, Amy (ISBN: 9780785738831) from Amazons Book Store. We will also be starting a year-long unit of study about letters. We will be graphing our favorite apples, too, and that will give us a chance to try eating different kinds! We will be acting out a trip to a farm to pick apples and pumpkins and will be making art projects of trees, leaves, pumpkins and apples. This story offers us an opportunity to explore the changes that occur in the fall, such as the changing colors of the leaves, the planting and harvesting of apples and pumpkins, the variety of textures and flavors of foods made from apples and pumpkins, and the equipment on a farm. At home, they bake an apple pie and carve pumpkins into Jack-O-Lanterns. While on the farm, they ride the hay wagon, climb trees, use an apple picker, have a picnic, and buy their apples and pumpkins.
