Apples Witches
3rd grade has a tradition of carving and dressing apple witches each fall. It is a super fun project that we will connect with a writing activity. Apple witches will be carved in September and set out to dry until we dress them in October, just in time for Halloween. I need every student to bring one medium sized apple (we will not be eating them) by Thursday, September 20th. The apple needs to be medium size, too big and it will rot, too small and the face won’t be visible. We will be carving our apple witches on Friday morning.
In order to do this, I need several parent volunteers who would be willing to come into our class on Friday, September 21st at 10:00 and help with this project for an hour or so. We will need 8 parent volunteers, 1/8 size teaspoons (at least 10), and apple peelers (at least 8). If you have any of these items but cannot attend, please send them with your child, and I will make sure that they get back to you.
Later, I will also need a few parent volunteers to sew (at home) extra witch costumes (very easy sewing).
If you would like to volunteer, you may let me know on BLOOMZ or email me. Thank you so much!
