For part of our apple unit students learned about the different parts of an apple. We talked about what parts are edible to humans and what parts animals can eat that humans don't really eat. The students also labeled the diagram as part of our second grade standards.
Our apple pies were a success! Love seeing the excitement in their eyes!
October is fire prevention month. Today we reviewed all of our safety rules and learned how to call 911.

October 11th was National Walk to a Park Day so Mrs. Tierney and Ms. Vaughn's class walked to the park together for afternoon recess. It was so much fun!

Apple week continues for 2nd grade. Today Mrs. Tierney's class taste tested apples and chose our favorites. Students graphed the results and did a math worksheet using those results. Later they enjoyed more apple slices, this time with caramel and cream cheese fruit dip. So good!
Mrs.Waun's classroom is full of writers! We have been practicing writing opinion pieces for this first 9 weeks! We had some fun with this one and wrote about a silly animal that we wish we could have as a pet!
Thank you to the Parsons Rotary Club. They gave each third grade student a dictionary and ruler today. We are lucky to have such a great community that supports Parsons Schools.
Super proud of these students today! They did a wonderful job on their Johnny Appleseed readers theater! So happy so many parents and grandparents were able to make it. I know it's hard during the day.
It's a beautiful day for a besties picture at recess!
