Provide each student with a 9 by 11-inch piece of red construction paper. Have the students cut out an apple shape from the red piece of paper making it as large as possible on the page? If your students have trouble with this, cutting out a cardboard pattern is another option. Students also cut out two leaf shapes and a stem from green and brown construction paper. Most students can cut out shapes to form the leaves and stem without a pattern. The apple is assembled by gluing the leaves and stem to the back of the red apple.<\/p>\n<p>For our writing project, students wrote a rough draft summarizing the story. They rewrote the summary on a new piece of paper and glued it onto the apple.<\/p>\n<p>To make the worm, students were given pom-poms in varying sizes. Glue the pom-poms in order from largest to smallest.
