last week's theme

​What fun we had this past week working with Fruits, vegetables and nuts we harvested from our garden.  We made Roasted tomatillo salsa and some rather delicious Stone Soup.  We used our harvest during our language group time by group time by graphing fruits and vegetables by their first letter sound. We used some of beans during math.  Each child estimated how many seeds were in their bean.  Then they opened their beans and documented the amount.  For science using  mortars and pestles we ground up different parts of a plant (spices) and tasted them.  We then tasted different candy and matched the taste to the spice (part of the plant) it got it’s flavor from.  We are enjoying many culinary adventures in our garden tasing all the plants as they continue to thrive in this beautiful fall weather we are experiencing.
