🍎🌱 Mrs. McPherson’s class celebrated Johnny Appleseed’s birthday today! We learned all about his life, made our own crockpot applesauce, and even crafted Johnny Appleseed hats. Such a sweet (and tasty!) way to learn! 🍏👒
Mrs. Arrington came to read to Mrs. Smiley’s and Mrs. Higgins’s kindergarten friends, and she made the story come alive! With her festive hat and silly spirit, we were all smiles and giggles.
Thank you for sharing your love of reading with us!
