This is a good book to use in a math lesson. You could Tally the amount of each apple that is collected in the story and teach the students about pictographs and tally marks.

If a class is taking a field trip to an apple orchard this would also be a good book to read before, after, or both to teach them about the different types of apples. I may read it and then ask my students to come up with their own ways of picking and collecting apples.

Good book to assist you in teaching numbers and colors. Also talks about the different types and names of apples. You can also use this book to explain why it is important to be social and have a good attitude towards others.

This is a book is about a class that takes a field trip to pick apples, but one of the little boys does not want to pick any apples. This book can be used during math. Each child can have a certain amount of apples and they might have to figure out how many baskets they need to distribute the apples evenly.
