Yummy!! We made Applesauce!


Since we are working on making predictions in reading,
I thought it might be fun to see if my little stars could use their predicting skills
and guess what we were going to make from their apples.

I set out all of the ingredients and this recipe on Friday. 
Some of their predictions were:
-apple pie
-apple juice
-apple cake

Then, someone predicted and...
What was it? 
APPLESAUCE! 

One of our clues...the recipe!


We mixed our apples with LOTS OF SUGAR! 

A LOT OF SUGAR!

Some yummy cinnamon..

some water...

more cinnamon...

We stirred...

J.R. stirred....

We smashed the apples...

We mushed the apples...


After a lot of stirring, smashing, and mushing
we cooked our applesauce all day! 

We read the story: A Little, Red House with No Doors, No Windows, and a Star Inside.
The story is about a little boy who goes looking for a little, red
house with no doors, no windows, and a star inside.
Before he gives up, the "wind" helps him to find it.
What does he find?
He finds out the house is a little, red apple.
Check out the star inside!
Soooo cool!!! 

For snack, we ate our yummy applesauce! 

I think Carson likes it! 

Tanner is enjoying his applesauce!
