We All Scream For Ice Cream!

     For our last "cooking" session of the year we made vanilla ice cream in a Ziploc bag  Below are some photos, but if you would like to try it yourself, click on this link: http://homeparents.about.com/od/recipesandcrafts/r/zip_icecream.htm

Most of the children liked it but a few complained that it was salty.  We didn't put salt in the ingredients but you do use it in the outer bag to help the ice cream freeze.  I think some got mixed in when they were spooning it out.  Fair warning if you try making it yourself.



     We had the first showings of our Fractured Fairytales today and the reviews were terrific!  I am so proud of their reading fluency and expression.  What wonderful actors we have in this class.  We are looking forward to the parents coming on Thursday.  See below for photos of the action.
