Dear Parents,
This week we boiled, skinned, and mixed sweet potatoes. Everyone took turns using the hand mixer. We added a tiny bit of milk, cinnamon, brown sugar, and butter. We read Feast For Tenand noticed that the illustrations looked like us cooking in the kitchen
The next day we boiled cranberries to make sauce. We felt the cranberries before adding heat and then watched as they split open and turned mushy.
We had eight different kinds of apples for snacks. We compared the apples, noticing that they were different sizes, shapes, and colors. We cut the apples into bits and tasted them using our sense of taste. We recalled our five senses and realized that we were using all five. We looked in the center of each apple to see if they all had stars inside, they did.
We mixed dry and wet ingredients to make our corn muffins. We tried to time it so they would be hot for the butter we made last Friday.
On Wednesday, during our family feast, we filled our family tree with pine cones, and our bellies with food.
Thank you all for sharing your offspring with us!
Have a delicious thanksgiving,
Therese
