Preschool Suppliesapples (variety), juicing machine Description
LEARNING OBJECTIVE: Concepts of science - learning how apple cider is made from apples. Observe and experiment with how things turn from one form to another (ie. solid to a liquid). Explore with senses of sight, smell and taste. EXPERIMENT: Cut up different types of apples into slices and put them into the juicer (skin, seeds and all). Have them gather around and watch as the apples are compressed and juice comes out on one side and the skin and apple pulp comes out on the other. Make enough juice so children can each have a sample. Talk about how it smells and tastes. Finish the KNOW-WONDER-LEARN chart with what the children have learned about making apple cider.
