🍏 Apple Picking Season!! Pick out some Apple Resources! 🍎🍎


Hey Teacher Friends!

It’s apple picking season!!! (At least here in Ohio!) Here are some fun ways to bring apples into your classroom!

Apple Science - Check out my blog post Why do apples turn brown? An Apple Science Experiment. In this experiment, students can explore why apples turn brown and which substance works best to prevent browning. I have some fun, differentiated apple experiment booklets available in my TPT Shop to accompany the experiment, but they are not required to complete the experiment.

Here’s a great video by SciShow: Why do apples turn brown?

Speaking of Science…

If you haven’t already, you can download my Free Scientific Method Posters to go along with any fun experiments you plan to do this year!
