December 15 in Room 11

  • Second graders began illustrating and constructing "Little Elf" booklets.
  • In P.E. everyone played dodge ball.
  • In math Mrs. Stebbins
  • Students got practice reading a recipe, measuring and working in teams as they made apple pies.
  • They used a little machine with a crank to peel and core the apples, then cut them up and put the chunks into a pie shell.
  • Each child had the opportunity to add sugar and cinnamon, pinch the pie crusts together and dab on some butter.
  • Mrs. Lampe came to school to help make the pies. Mrs Craig came back to school for the afternoon just to be part of the pie-making process. Mrs. Green baked them over the lunch hour.
  • The children wrote sense words (sweet, crunchy, sticky...) describing their apple pie making experiences.
  • Eating pie was the best part of the day!
