Johnny Appleseed origami project - Use a perfect square of paper to make Johnny Appleseed's body. It's best to use either construction paper or cover stock to make the body sturdy enough to stand up and hold something. Follow the folding and cutting directions below.
Click here to download Johnny Appleseed's head, shoes, and apples (PowerPoint file) or better yet draw your own with construction paper and markers. Once you've made his body, cut out Johnny's head and paste on the point of the body. Now cut out shoes and glue them to the end of the legs then trim points off. You can also design and draw Johnny Appleseed's head using KidPix or the Paint Program on your computer. Fill his pouch with apples with vocabulary words, math facts, etc.

Apples were once
wild fruit. They were first cultivated over
3,000 years ago by the ancient Greeks,
Etruscans, and Romans. The Romans took
cultivated apples to England when they conquered
the country in the first century. Apples, seeds,
and trees were brought to North America from
England sometime around 1629. These cultivated
varieties spread westward with the help of
settlers and Native Americans. Their spread
increased greatly when pioneer John Chapman, the
famous Johnny Appleseed, planted apple seeds
wherever he went. Today, the United States is
second to China as the principle apple-producing
country in the world. Of the 7500 varieties
grown in the world, more than 2500 are grown in
the United States. Fifteen of these are eating
apples and account for 90 percent of total
production. (taken from Classroom Connect's
Connected Newsletter, Sept. 2004.)
