Homemade Bread!

 We had a great presentation by the King Arthur Flour Co. today! Kids were encouraged to explore and learn while doing something that would benefit so many. Students have been given the opportunity to make a loaf for their family as well as a family in need. Just bring it to school so we can get it into the hands of those who are in need. What an awesome opportunity to give back! The kids were sent home with flour, yeast and a measuring tool.Ask your child about it! And have a wonderful time making memories as well as bread together!

Look at us NOW!

After last weeks vocabulary test, I think I might need to expand the board! I'm so proud of my kids! Keep up the AWESOME work and I'll keep cutting stars :)
