Apple Symmetry Craft for Preschool, Kindergarten, & First Grade

I created a simplified apple symmetry activity for preschoolers, kindergartners, and 1st graders, because our advanced apple symmetry freebie for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th graders has been such a popular post!  This fun apple craft is the perfect fall activity that also doubles as a decoration for your classrooms and hallways. Nothing beats a meaningful craft that connects fine motor skills with math!

 

 

  • construction paper, construction paper scraps, scrapbooking paper, or a wallpaper book (I found most of these supplies via this idea).
  • cardstock for the apple template
  • scissors
  • glue
  • pencil

 

  1. Print out my free apple template on cardstock.
  2. Have students fold a piece of paper in half. My son used scrapbooking paper for his apples.
  3. Line our template up to the folded paper side.
  4. Trace around the template.
  5. Cut and unfold an apple.
  6. Draw a leaf and stem. Cut them out and glue to your apple.   

These look adorable on windows, classroom walls, classroom doors, or as a bulletin board display!

Meet the Teachers

Meet the Teachers

Back when we were both teaching, we dreamed of a website that would make lesson planning easier. We both remember late nights scouring search engine for unit ideas. After searching 1000s of blogs and sites, nothing was exactly meeting our vision: creative resources for the overworked teacher or homeschooler! So…this was born.
