Students in Ms. Dawn's Jerome Preschool class enjoyed reading Ten Apples Up On Top by Dr. Seuss and enjoyed creating their apple counting art. They explored apples further with a sink-or-float activity and found that apples float, no matter their color or size. The class also discovered that cutting an apple one way reveals a star while cutting it another way shows an oval. This hands-on lesson helped them see how apples are alike and different. #SaginawISD #OurStory
