The kids had been learning about the meaning and story behind CINCO DE MAYO and had been talking about Spanish culture during their Spanish language lessons throughout the week. After learning about the holiday, the kids were able to feast on some yummy Mexican style food during our “Taco Luncheon!” The kids made chicken tacos and dressed it up anyway they wanted whether it be with salsa, guacamole, and plenty more toppings. The kids got to try a Mexican specialty, “Horchata”, to wash down the delicious food they were eating. The kids had a great time learning about the Mexican heritage from their teachers and participating in something that made them feel the things that they had been learning about all week! We look forward to many more celebrations like this. Happy Cinco De Mayo from the Apple Schhol!

These kids have been busy working on growing their tomato’s and taking good care of their plants. We are so excited to watch these kids take on the responsibility of maintaining such an important job and are confident they are going to enjoy it every step of the way.

In honor of the start of our Apple School Garden project, all of our classes have been working on beautiful artworks and crafts that represent their view of the garden. From making their own tomato, garden sign, or fence each class had their own unique touch of celebrating the beginning of our garden season! We love and thank our students and teachers for their passion in something that is so wonderful and beneficial to all. Welcome, Apple School Garden!

How we celebrated Passover at APPLE SCHOOL!

What a wonderful way to celebrate the special holiday like our incredible Green Apple class. Our wonderful parent Lena (Liam and Liroy’s mom) came to the Apple School to make Matzo with the kids. Lena started the yummy process by explaining the meaning of Passover and talking about the traditional foods to eat during the holiday. She also showed the kids a great educational video about the special time. Lena had the kids start the Matzo making process by having each child individually put their hands in a bowl with Matzo meal and water and start the mixing process. The kids felt like little chefs! Lena took the dough that the kids made with her to put in her oven later at home but brought the kids an already made Matzo along with Elijah’s cup that was filled with grape juice to show the custom during Passover. Lena did a great job of giving the kids a great feel for the way Passover is celebrated and the kids cant wait to have her back to do more fantastic hands on projects! Lena also brought the Apple School Passover goodies which we appreciate so much. Thank you Lena for your time and commitment to the Apple School and giving the kids such a wonderful learning experience! As always, we encourage all parents to spend time with us here at the Apple School to bring some of your knowledge and creativity and share it at your child’s class!

The Apple School Pajama Party on Incredible Kid Day was a blast for all the kids to enjoy! The kids flocked to school with smiles from ear to ear strutting their favorite pajamas with designs like superhero’s, unicorns, and Disney characters. All the kids were comparing pajamas and walking around like they were models in a fashion show. The classes got busy with pajama making activities like custom pajama decorating and coloring! During snack time, the kids enjoyed a yummy assortment of fruits and snacks provided by the parents and Apple School. We appreciate all the parents help in getting the kids ready for Pajama Day and look forward to many more fun filled activities like this throughout the year!

Ira and the kids made funny and decorative heart shaped faces with foam stickers and the kids had an absolute blast! Each child got to create their own unique heart shaped face to show in front of the whole class and to take home for their friends and family to see. Ira did a great job explaining all the steps and pieces to the kids and the kids loved doing the project with her. At the end of the project, Ira and Alexis handed out Valentines Day candy and treats for the kids to take home with them which got the kids in an even more ecstatic mood! The Red Apple kids cant wait to have Ira come back and do another wonderful project with them. We appreciate Ira taking the time to spend the loving mood of Valentines Day with the Apple School kids! As always we encourage all parents to come in and spend time with your child in their classroom by doing a project, a lesson about something important to you, or by giving the kids a description of your job and the work you do. Warm wishes, big hugs, and lots of love from the Apple School!
