Teacher's Apple


Teaching should be full of ideas instead of stuffed with facts.
~Author Unknown

I am so happy to be back to school~
and so thankful that I get to be the teacher of my children.
What a blessing.

I just found out last year that when you cut an apple in half this way~
it makes a beautiful flower.
Isn't that magical?

Good for you Chas! Bring them up in the way they should go and when they are older they will not depart from it.

I fear what 'values' are being instilled elsewhere.

My mother was an elementary schoolteacher and apples were always a part of the display for going back to school. Like the treatment you have given it.
