Chipotle for our friend Remy |
| For her birthday meal, Remy was deciding between two of her favorite meals - oatmeal and 'Chipotle' (tacos) and ultimately chose the latter. Together with her mom Katie, she recorded a video message for the birthday committee in which she's sharing her preferences and how to best prepare her favorite meal. |
C H E E S E Lily: Milk. Wilder: From cows! Ines: And how does it come from the cow to the grocery store? Frannie: The farmers! Wilder: The farmers milk the cows and then put it in a bottle and then like a message send it to the grocery store. And they drive it to the grocery store. Ines: Wow! How do you know all of that? Wilder: I guessed. Ines: Have you seen a cow before? Lily: No. I mean, yes! Frances: Noo. Wilder: One day I actually became a real cowboy and I actually rided a cow. In Montana where there’s lots of cows and horses. And I rided a horse all the way up the falls and then a cow all the way up the falls. Lily: Why is it called cowboys and they don’t ride cows? Wilder: I rided a cow and a horse all the way up the falls in two hours. | A V O C A D O S Wilder: We’re growing avocados at my house. Two are already ripe. She just said homemade and that’s home. They grow next to the tomatoes and they grow in soil and two are already ripe because they need a lot of water to grow. Well it took very close to those two, it took like 3 hours. It looks like leaves, stick. With a vine tangling around the stick. I will try to take a picture but it’s over a fence where our farm is so it might to hard to see. Up up up up, down down down down and then you need to walk walk walk walk and then you need to pick them right off the plants. And then I can take it home and put it in a bag and bring it to school but I need to climb over a whole fence. So we need to get a little ladder. |

| How can we share all the information we just gathered? Wilder suggested sharing the notes we wrote down by reading them out loud to everyone. In addition to that Lily had the idea to draw pictures so everyone would be able to 'read' them. The group identified moments that seemed most important to them and drew them. The next day we matched our drawings with the corresponding images from the video and discussed their chronological sequence. |
G U A C A M O L E Mash it like banana bread! - Lily We usually use a fork. - Wilder It's kinda weird. - Frannie, looking at the avocado pit It looks like salad. It's great! Let's put some hot sauce on it. - Frances My dad is the only one who eats hot sauce. - Lily It looks like green frosting. - Frances | B E A N S Why is there no beans it? It's melted! - Lily, surprised to not see beans when the can opened No guys, It's easy. They are in it. See, it's right down there. Put your hand it. Deeper. You see, it's here. - Wilder, gently picking up beans out of can to show they are submerged in water |
It makes a sort of sound. Shhh. - Frances A whizzing sound. - Wilder It's bubbling. It's cool to see this. It burns! (cooks) - Wilder | Why is it not bubbling on the white spot? - Lily It's air? - Wilder Beans? - Lily It doesn't have the white spot anymore (after stirring) because it mixed in. - Frances |
Images that Frances, Lily and Wilder took during their "Irish dancing photo shoot" with Remy: | Lily: Any type of dance! Frances: Irish dancing. Lily: Tap dancing and ballet. Wilder: Take a picture and cut out of Irish dancing. Frances: We can make people Irish dancing with their hands on their hips. Wilder: Remy could do the Irish dancing, we take a photo of it and cut it out. I think Remy is the only person who knows how to do that. Lily, Wilder and Frannie helped Remy taking off her shoes because they weren't the appropriate shoes to perform Irish dancing. |
