Parents & Students,
We've just finished our 2nd major informational writing piece and we're moving on to our informational recipe writing project. For this, students will need to bring in their favorite recipe for: 1 main dish & 1 dessert. These can be from a personal collection, a cookbook, or the internet. Please have them copy down the recipe (don't send the original/only copy). Extra Credit will be given for completing a holiday drink recipe or a favorite side dish that involves steps in the preparation.
If you'd like to prepare the dish and take a photo making or presenting your creation, send it in and we will put it with your son/daughters recipe. We will bind all students' work into one big Holiday Cookbook so that students have easy recipes to help around the kitchen and have some fun doing it over the Holiday Break! These recipes need to be brought in by Friday, December 14th, so that we can begin typing the following week.
Also, Volcano Projects have begun to arrive at school. Students must bring in their volcanos they constructed at home on or before Friday, Dec. 14th. This is the day they will present. Volcanos should be constructed using any creative material and should reflect the actual volcano they are researching in class. Extra credit is offered if they bring in materials and erupt their volcanos.
Thanks!
Mr. Benzin
