Johnny Appleseed

Dallin's kindergarten teacher is Ms. Allen and she refers to all of her students as "Ms. Allen's Apples". This first quarter of school they have been doing all kinds of activities involving apples. One day everyone was asked to bring in an apple and then using their math skills they sorted the apples by type and then graphed how many of each kind of apple was brought in. This activity must have left a big impression on Dallin because when we were in the grocery store the other day he surprised me by being able to correctly identify Gala, Granny Smith, and Red Delicious apples. In class they also studied the story of Johnny Appleseed and they each got to make their own Johnny Appleseed hat and seed pouch. Before Dallin would let me take a picture of him he removed his shoes because he said that Johnny Appleseed didn't have enough money to buy shoes.
