Riddle about the apple

Round, rosy,
It grows on a branch.
Adults love him
And little children.
(Apple)

Which words of the riddle told you the correct answer?
What is the name of the tree on which apples grow? Apple tree.

The wild apple tree is a tree that people paid attention to in ancient times, since its fruits ripen quite quickly, are easily picked and are well preserved in winter in fallen leaves.
Russians and Ukrainians called the wild apple tree kislichka, lesovka, lesnina, dichka, kislitsa, lesnushka. Think and tell me, where do you think these names come from? This apple tree grows in the forest and its fruits are sour.

But let's figure out why we say “wild apple tree”? Because it grows on its own, without human help and care. And those apple trees that people plant in gardens and care for are called garden ones.
Those apple trees that grow in the garden were planted by man, but who plants wild forest apple trees? The tree itself takes care of this, and the birds also help. The wild apple tree has spread its roots widely. Shoots grow from the roots of the apple tree, break through the ground, and there you have it, a new apple tree begins to grow. If the wind knocks down an old apple tree, then young sprouts - shoots - will soon appear from its stump. They will gain strength and give life to a new apple tree. And birds help the apple tree by eating apple seeds. After eating, the bird flies away from the tree and carries away the seeds. They fall into the ground and sprout away from their mother apple tree.

You are familiar with the taste of garden apples, but now I suggest you try wild apples. And not just try, but distinguish by taste, with your eyes closed, which is a forest apple and which is a garden one?

Didactic game “Difference by taste”

Children are offered pieces of garden and wild apples. They try them with their eyes closed and say which apple is wild. And what a garden one. After the food has been chewed, children are asked to justify their choice.

The fruits of forest apple trees are excellent food for birds and animals. Birds eat apple pulp, seeds and flower buds. Neither hares nor wild ungulates will pass by an apple lying on the ground. What wild ungulates do you know? Domestic animals also love to eat wild apples. Let's remember what pets you know? Of course, they themselves are not allowed into the forest to pick apples. But caring owners collect apples in the forest and bring them to their pets.

Special mention must be made about the bear. It has not been found in Crimea for a long time, but it is such an apple gourmet that it is necessary to talk about it. But first, about who a gourmet is. A gourmet is a lover of tasty things. Repeat this word and try to remember it.

So, from a hundred apple trees, a bear will choose the one with the most delicious and sweet fruits. The boars are watching the bear. Where he goes, so do they. Before the bear has time to climb the tree and shake the apples from the branch for himself, the wild pigs are right there, picking them up. The bear in the tree barks and “swears”, but the pigs don’t even listen, they just champ! And only when the indignant earner, having lost patience, falls like a sack on their heads - the pigs screech and scatter. They also say that the bear marks the chosen tree - leaving scratches on the bark with its claws. People knew about this and advised those who went into the forest to buy apples: “Don’t try in vain from other apple trees, just look for the bear’s, marked one.”
Bees also love apple trees. They don't eat apples, so why do they love them? All apple trees are good honey plants. Bees use the nectar from apple flowers to make delicious and aromatic honey.

Now we'll play. In the game you will come across the expression “wormy apple”. How do you understand it? An apple spoiled by a worm.

Outdoor game “Apple” (Moldavian folk game)

All children play at the same time. Holding hands, they form a circle. The driver is chosen at will. He stands in the center of the circle and says:

Apple, wormy apple,
The wind blows, it falls.

When the driver begins to pronounce these words, the players run in a circle. At the end of the phrase, everyone should quickly squat down. Anyone who fails to do this, i.e., takes at least one step or falls, is eliminated from the game. The game continues until there are three players left in the circle. They are declared the winners.
Rules of the game: players running in a circle are not allowed to separate their hands. Of the two players who violated the rule, one leaves the game - the one who has a free right hand. However, by agreement, you can also remove from the game the one whose left hand is free.

A wild apple tree lives a long time - 300 years. But garden apple trees live much shorter; not all live to be a hundred years old. But both trees make the air cleaner, healthier, and even cooler in the summer. (The apple tree reflects more than half of the solar radiation into space).

We talked about the fact that birds and animals eat the fruits of wild apple trees with pleasure. But what about the person? Man has always wanted the fruits of the wild apple tree to be sweeter. To do this, they chose trees with the most delicious apples. From the seeds of these apples a young tree was grown, the fruits of which were even sweeter. And so many, many times. The man began to take care of the apple tree. And the apple tree thanked the man. After all, in addition to the fact that apples are tasty and healthy, they are used to make jam, marmalade, juice, and bake apple pies. Babies are fed applesauce.

Apple trees, both wild and orchard, have merit in treating humans. An English proverb says: “You don’t need a doctor for an apple a day.” One apple is good, but two or three are better. Apples contain a lot of vitamins.

People also use apple tree wood: they make furniture, boards, and rulers from it.

Didactic game “Apple on a plate”

Children take a plastic plate (or shallow bowl) in their hands and try to turn it so that the apple lying in it describes a circle.

Paper construction "Apple"

Children use scissors to cut sheets of thin cardboard into four strips (along the drawn lines). In the center of each strip, the teacher makes a hole into which the children thread a cord of twisted, compressed paper and secure it at the bottom with adhesive tape to form a ball. Children cut out a leaf from green paper and glue it to a string.

And at the end of our lesson, let's try some apple treats: pie, juice, marmalade.
