This letter was written just to update parents on some of the fun activities we had been doing during our apple unit. As a conclusion to the apple unit, we did an apple tasting activity. The children were so excited for it! Not only did we predict which of the three types of apples we would like, but then we did whole group and individual graphing to show our results. It was lots of fun- and a real learning experience too. Then we sampled other apple products too and graphed these also.
This was also an informative letter. We were going on a field trip soon and did not have all permission slips in, or enough parents to go along. In this way, we hoped to remind parents of the upcoming trip.
