Monthly Recipe in our Learning Kitchen Begins...

What a delicious introduction to our Learning Kitchen by making DIRT CUPS!! Students worked together to read our Dirt Cup recipe (which will be in today's Friday Folder) to make this yummy recipe as an afternoon snack.

We used our Learning Kitchen which was purchased six years ago to assist with cooking projects in the classroom. The students did an excellent job taking turns, pouring, opening, crushing cookies, holding, stirring, using the microwave, etc. so everyone could learn how to prepare this tasty recipe.

Each month we will be reinforcing our handwriting by writing a special recipe that we will be making together in class! If we can't read our own handwriting or make spelling or capitalization errors in our writing, it could have an impact on the end result of our recipe...so we'll continue to promote neat handwriting and benefit from following the recipe with yummy monthly class snacks!!!  In addition, we'll work on our measurement skills, reading abilities, following directions, sequential order and so much more to expand our learning with our Learning Kitchen each month!
