Today we kicked off our apple unit!
We went out into our courtyard to look at the apple trees. While we were there, everyone picked a nice, fresh apple to eat. One student commented that it was the best apple they had ever tasted. Back inside, we checked our apple cores for the five seed pockets. Many students found all five seeds. Finally, we completed an experiment to discover if an apple would sink or float. We learned that apples float because they are 25% air!
More fun tomorrow...
