We did a lot more activities for "How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World" last year-- you can check it out in this post.
This year, we kept to the basics and took very few pictures! With that said, we still had a wonderful time reading and talking about the book!
My son got a kick out of filling in the part, "...except if the market is closed!"
And I enjoyed reading it everyday!
It is such a cute book and I highly. highly recommend it if you have never read it.
How To Make An Apple Pie & See the World Go Along Activities
During our week, we:
- worked on subtraction,
- talked about 'fresh food for health,'
- learned new vocabulary words, &
- traveled all over the world map labeling her travels
Simple Geography Lesson
While learning the different countries, Big Brother drew out her travels on our laminated wall map! Such a simple hands-on geography lesson!
Apple Labeling
For a science and craft activity, my son made a paper bag apple and then labeled it.
Half of the paper bag was the outside of the apple, and the other half was what it would look like it you cut it in half!
{I love how simple it is to get the younger siblings involved with Five in a Row lessons, too!}
Bake an Apple Pie
And, how could we not read this book, How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World, all week and not make an apple pie... impossible!! Of course we made an apple pie, too!
It was so very yummy!
