10/5 Classroom Update


This week, we had so much fun learning about apples and the life cycle of an apple tree. The highlight of our week was definitely our field trip to Schwallier's Country basket where we got to learn more about apples, try a delicious donut and apple cider, feed baby goats, go down the big slide and pick an apple and pumpkin. Thank you so very much to all of our drivers who helped out on the field trip - we wouldn't be able to go and have such a wonderful experience without you! Here are some picture highlights from the week and our field trip:
