Your children will have fun learning about the parts of an apple as they read and color this free printable book. It features five pages. Each of the pages features a different part of the anatomy of an apple.
Before your children read and color the parts of the apple in the book, you may want to read a children’s picture book about apples. Below you will find some of my favorite apple-themed books.
Getting the Parts of an Apple Book Ready
You can download a copy of The Parts of an Apple Printable Book and open it in Acrobat Reader. The printable is black and white. It could be printed out on a black and white printer.
You will probably need to fold the book for your children. Let me walk you through how to fold it.
Folding the Book
You will fold it in half lengthwise creating a hot dog fold.
Then you will fold it in half the other direction creating a hamburger fold.
Next, you will fold it in half again to create a small rectangle.
You will then need to totally unfold it.
Creating a Center Cut
You will need to fold the book in half again hamburger style (from top to bottom)
Then you will need to cut along the center line across the inside rectangle. You will stop cutting when you get to beginning the outside rectangle.
Folding the Book
You will need to fold the book into a hot dog fold.
Then you will push the folded edges towards center allowing the slit to open
up into a diamond shape or mouth shape.
You will need to keep pushing edges together until diamond or mouth becomes a slit again,
perpendicular to folded edges.
Fold one edge toward slit and the opposite slit toward the folded edge.
