"I've never made ice cream before!"        CC


​It's ice cream week in KW! The Rainey crew made cookies and cream ice cream earlier in the week. On Thursday, Tucker classmates made strawberry ice cream, using coconut milk and coconut cream.  In our other cooking projects, we have used a stand mixer. This time, we used a hand mixer, which generally required both hands!  It also felt funny to hold the mixer:

            Lochie - It's vibrating!


Process over Product!

At St. John's, we emphasize the process over the product.  This can be true even when the product is ice cream! A few classmates described the process through graphic representations today.

Ice Cream Party!

Of course, the best part of the whole process was eating it.  We invited all of the teachers, Molly, and Audrey to try our ice cream!  Everyone agreed that the results were yummy!

Games!

There was more to this rainy inside day than just ice cream.  We played lots of games!  We started the after noon with "Fox and Rabbit" and "Frog Detective."  Both involved playing close attention to other members of the class.

We also played Uno, High Card, and a few silly rounds of Telephone.  It was a fun Friday!

Community Connections

This week, we sent a letter to Mr. Howard, the owner of the Transformer statues.  We told him how much we enjoyed them and how they inspired our work this year.   He should have received the letter no later than today.  We will let you know if he writes back!

Other materials and experiences....

Here's the other things that filled our Friday:
  • Name tags for our portfolio bags,
  • Collages, 
  • Planting some marigolds,
  • Building,   and
  • Puzzles (of course)!

Have a wonderful long weekend!
