It's been a cold long January. We are sorry we haven't posted in a while. Here are some fun pictures from our activities in late December and early January. Stay warm!

We have been learning how to think strategically during our chess class.  Challenge us to a chess game this winter to see what we are learning!

A late Halloween post


Would you like to learn how to make an easy Halloween treat?  Then let us teach you how to make a ghost banana.  They are fun to make and nutritious too.  Try them at home.



First, peel the banana.


Then cut the banana in half.


Place two small chocolate chips in the banana for eyes.


Push one large chocolate chip into the banana for a mouth.



Eat your ghost banana.  Enjoy!





Let's Bowl!

Our adaptive physical education teacher, Michael, invited our class to go bowling at Shell Lanes.  Some of us had never been bowling before.  It was a great way to be active, and use our knowledge of combinations of 10!  What a fun way to spend the morning.

Pizzeria Uno

We kicked off our Informational - How To unit by making our own pizzas at Pizzeria Uno and then writing about it step by step.  

First we got the dough.









Then we put some sauce on the dough with a spoon.








Then we sprinkled some cheese on top of the sauce.







Next we placed some toppings on the cheese.  We used pepperoni and broccoli.  Some of us didn't use any toppings.  

























Then you cook the pizza in the oven for 7 minutes.
While our pizzas were cooking, we wrote our How To Make a Pizza piece.







Finally, eat your pizza!  Be careful that you don't burn yourself!  Pizza fresh out of the oven is hot!











We couldn't go back to school without having a special dessert of vanilla ice cream sundaes.  Yum!  











We love our How To unit!  What will we make and write about next??
