Miss Stewart’s class had their first “Secret Scientist” teach a lesson on apple oxidation! While waiting to see the apple’s reaction to air, water, milk, and lemon, students got to enjoy an apple “donut.”

PreK went to Okaw Valley Orchard today and had an educational tour, saw how the apple cider gets made, visited the bee observation hive, and learned how the apples get packed!! 🍏🍎
