The most logical inference about why Jonas took the apple home is: He wanted to study the apple because it changed in some way.
This inference is supported by Jonas's experience of seeing the apple change in color, which sparks his curiosity and indicates that he is beginning to perceive things differently, a key theme in "The Giver."
