We made ice cream in a bag!



Today was a special day! First of all, it was Brady's birthday! So, we had cupcakes....yum! And then.......Shannon Franklin from the Extension office came. We discovered that ice cream comes from milk, milk comes from black and white cows, and that God made the cows! We had bags that had milk, sugar, and vanilla in them. We placed them inside larger bags that had ice and salt in them. And we SHOOK.....and SHOOK.......and SHOOK! Soon, we had ice cream! It was SO yummy!

We continued to talk about letter "I", and we practiced writing "i" some more. We also discovered that the sound of "i" may not only be at the beginning of words like igloo, insects, iquana, and indian, but can also be in the middle of words like pig, did, and hill.
In Bible class, we learned about the 7 days of creation and about the serpent tempting Eve to eat the fruit. Did you know the Bible does not say the fruit was an apple?......it just says it was a fruit. We talked about the Garden of Eden and the lamb that was slain and shed blood for Adam and Eve's sin and how Jesus shed his blood to cover our sins.
We practiced the numbers 1, 2, and 3 again and did some counting. . We also concentrated on the color red. One of the books we read today was Green Eggs and Ham... One of the favorites!
Ms. Frances came today, and the students learned Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star with motions.
So, it was a full and fun day!
