To finish off our Frontierland unit for school, we studied American Tall Tales! What fun stories to read! We had a "Logging Camp" at our house where we learned what life might have been like at a real logging camp, like the ones Paul Bunyan worked on.
Here are the some of the little lumberjacks eating their logger's lunch.
We also took a field trip to Riley's Apple Farm at Los Rios Rancho in Oak Glen, where Johnny Appleseed took us on a tour of the Apple Orchards...
We also got to make fresh pressed apple cider, Delicious!
At the end of our tour, we saw how apples are sorted, cleaned, and packaged. Then, we each got to eat an apple fresh from the tree! Yum-o!
So, we are now qualified Frontiersmen and will be starting a new unit next week! Fun times!
