We had the produce person talk to the kids about their apples and how they get to the store, etc. Then we did a scavenger hunt. It was interesting to see all of the things with apples in them. ...

It is a Dr. Jean song to the tune of Shortnen Bread.

Have you ever done mystery scrap? Pick some arbitrary scrap, don't tell them. Give so long a time for clean up, then they present their scraps or clean up, or tell them who found the mystery scrap....

Yard sales are also a great way to get things. I also let parents know and some are great in recycling things from home.

If you're going to buy it, you might try Dollar Tree or Target for the small containers. I made a batch of the cake mix play dough and gave each student a small ball, maybe 2 inches or so. The...
