Johnny Appleseed Day at FPDS

First graders took a week to learn about Johnny Appleseed and just about every other apple fact one could come up with. To conclude the week, they had an Apple Bobbing party. They had a great time and it was hilarious watching these toothless kiddos try to bob for apples. Something I didn't expect {though I'm not sure why} was for teeth to fall out during the bobbing! Oh my, did they start falling out! I think our friend Rachel's tooth may have been the first, and I know there were at least 4 after hers. Thankfully Caroline lost hers the very night before! She was a little sad because the bobbing was hard to do with no teeth in the front. She gave it her best shot and had a blast! Thanks to a wonderful crew of first grade teachers for making learning so hands on and fun!
