Apple Picking Field Trip

Kindergarteners lucked out with the perfect fall weather for our apple picking field trip to Smolak Farm on Friday!

Everyone enjoyed the hayride to the apple orchard and yelling "Go, John, Go!" to John who drove the tractor that pulled our wagon.  Each child was excited to pick 5 apples.  There were talks of apple pie, apple crisp, and just slicing the juicy apples and eating them for snack.  

We took the hayride back to a barn that had picnic tables and stringed lights where we enjoyed apple cider and apple cider doughnuts.  

Finally, the kindergarteners ended the fun-filled morning by looking at a few of the farm animals.



Friday's field trip was a great way to wrap up our unit on apples.  We will soon be learning about pumpkins and then we will be able to compare and contrast the two fruits!

A huge thank you to the PTO for organizing and sponsoring this field trip!
