Apple Passage for an Orchard Reading Activity

Take your students on a crisp fall adventure with the Apple Orchard Reading Passage! This 2-page reading activity will have them practically smelling fresh apples and feeling the crunch of leaves underfoot all without leaving their seats.

Perfect for autumn-themed lessons or when you just want to bring a little nature into your reading time, this passage is packed with fun and educational content. As they read about a day at the orchard, students will learn about the sights, sounds, and apple-related activities—think apple picking, cider sipping, and maybe even a pie or two.
