A big thank you to Miss Nadine for helping us to cook apple sauce! The children helped to clean and prepare the apples in order to cook them all day in the slow cooker!
They were fascinated by how the gears worked in the peeler and how they could easily take the skin off in just a few turns of the handle!
We used kid friendly choppers so the children could help cut the apples into tiny pieces. This was great experience using a cooking tool as the children followed the directions in the recipe.
The apple sauce cooked all day (and even some of the night) and the children had an opportunity to taste it...
...and then vote as to whether or not they liked the apple sauce.
More children liked the apple sauce than didn't, and the children were able to analyze our chart and compare the numbers in each column.
What a fun activity! My students have always loved it as well! Could you please tell me where you got the great peeler and choppers?
