Room 9 Makes a Friendship Cake

























We had been feeding Herman our friendship cake in Room 9.  Mrs Borrie had given it to us to look after it and we had been feeding it.  Then Mrs Borrie came in and we baked the Friendship Cake.  It was delicious!  Now some children in the class have taken away their own Herman cakes to bake and pass on.  We had a great time.

Room 9 Makes Butter

 Room 9 has been looking at how food gets from the field to the table.  We looked at how to make butter.  We couldn't bring a cow into the classroom, so we just had to start with a bottle of cream. 








We put the cream in the shaker and passed it around and around and around, giving it a shake each time we got it.









Ms Sholson took the lid off to check it but it just looked like thick cream.







 But, at last we started to notice some changes!












Finally we had butter!  Ms Sholson drained the buttermilk off.  Then she spread the bread with the butter.







It tasted really good!
