Our class has been reading different versions of the classic story, "The Little Red Hen".  The children love to be helpful and responsible like the hen. The past two weeks we learned all about wheat and spent a day making bread. After thoroughly washing our hands, we all helped to mix the ingredients, knead the dough, form the dough into balls and, while the bread baked in roaster ovens right inside our classroom, we shook cream to make butter! If you would like to try this wonderful, messy and delicious fun at home, you can find our bread recipe by clicking "kindergarten recipes" to the right side of this page. I hope that your child will tell you about the different parts of wheat and some of the things that are made from wheat. Most importantly, I hope when you ask at home, "Who will help me....?" Your child will happily answer, "I will!"
