Short weeks are fun because we get to do fun activities that we can't do during a regular week! Today we read Stone Soup and learned how to be happy and how wonderful it is to share! We had fun acting out the story and then we made our own Stone Soup to share together. We began by making our own butter to eat on our rolls with the soup. We put whipping cream in jars and got busy shaking... sort of like the early Americans churning butter.
LM, CG, and NE are shaking hard to make their butter.
GT, QC and JP are working together to make butter.
Wow, look at DV give his jar some serious shaking!
Then we began chopping our vegetables to add to our pot to make a delicious Stone Soup! We chopped carrots, celery, and potatoes.
Next, we chopped onions... and we had lots of teary eyes!
We began adding ingredients to our pot of water and stones. Thanks to everyone that remembered to bring in items for the soup.
Finally, it is ready to eat (unfortunately... it was scorched!! You could smell it all over the school. However, they still wanted to taste it and some actually liked it!). DV seems to enjoy it!
