Some fun things that we will be doing with "A" this week. 
Apple Tasting, alphabet activities, animal charades, fingerprint ants and our own Book of Seasons of the Apple Tree

The Book of the Week - How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World
by Marjorie Priceman
This is another favorite in my own household.  It is a delightful, creative and humorous adventure that your children will enjoy for years to come.  We'll use the recipe at the back of the book to make an apple pie on Thursday.  Ask your child to trace the locations of the book on a world map this week.
