Hi Teacher Brains!
Can you believe tomorrow is the first day of fall???? In some ways this year is going by fast. In other ways it is dragging on forever. Education is happening and teachers are heroes for so many students and families who need some kind of normalcy for them to keep the faith that we will get through these difficult times. I hope you and your family are well!

September 26th is Johnny Appleseed’s Birthday. This was my favorite time to teach about apples and make homemade applesauce. The easiest recipe is to use a crockpot, add your peeled and cubed apples with a 1/2 cup of cinnamon red hots! (Yes, the candy!) It adds the sugar and cinnamon.

Interesting FACT about Johnny Appleseed

Did you know that the part we leave out when we teach about his life to young children is that the apples were not ones for eating. They were bitter, so we used them to make hard apple cider.

I want to make your workload lighter, so let me share some Johnny Appleseed resources that can help!
