Our class went out to the community garden and picked celery, onions, carrots, and beets. We will be using the fable, "Stone Soup", as an anchor for our project. We also used some of the beets for making beet chips in the cafeteria on Friday. The students watched while I used a mandoline, a French slicer used for making very thin "chips", and then they oiled and salted them. They were accepted very well by the class. We will make the soup together and then try it in class. The class also had one student who with some help was able to used all of plastic chain links to make an extremely long chain. We then walked to our special for that day having all the teachers and kids hold it off the ground. It was a nice community building activity.
