Description
A farm to table fall unit for preschool through 1st grade: a nonfiction read aloud, sequencing and how-to writing, an apple investigation, a taste test and a class applesauce recipe.
It also includes a complete Apple Stand pretend play kit with price tags, role tags, an open sign and receipts, plus apple tree counting mats 1 to 10.

WHY TEACHERS LOVE IT
The same apple words come back in the read aloud, the phonics pages, the math pages and the writing, so children really learn them.
Pages go from simple to more challenging, so you can use one unit from preschool to 1st grade.
Hands-on science, cooking and pretend play make the week memorable, and the color kit can be laminated and used again.
