This week the 6-graders are learning a very important skill: how to cook a healthy meal!  Cooking is important because it teaches kids about eating well. The students are learning to follow recipe directions and then they learn to clean up after themselves when the project is completed. They learn how to safely handle baking equipment gaining confidence in the kitchen. The students share the responsibilities and food showering each other with compliments when they taste the finished product. Excellent team work, my awesome students!

Here are our recipes:

Blueberry Muffins

Sweet Home Alabanana (Banana bread with chocolate chips)

Cran-Orange Bran Muffins Recipe

Practice is the Key to Success, my awesome students! Your stop motion video clips keep getting better!:)

Pepper’s Ghost is a special effects technique for creating transparent ghostly images. We discussed how the illusion worked and the students recreated it. They were using acetate pyradims to reflect the videos from their iPads. The reflections looked like holograms 😀
