Later in the week, we used Mat Man to help us draw people.

Walrus Cookies and Blubber

We have been learning all about walruses.  For our funky food, we made walrus cookie.

Maddie and her walrus cookie.  Her family provided the
 ingredients.  Thank you!

Our science experiment was all about how walruses keep warm in the arctic weather.  We had a bucket of ice and a blubber glove.  We observed how warm our hands were in the blubber glove and how cold our hand was in the ice.  We concluded that blubber keeps the walruses warm...for sure!

Winter Workstations

We started a new math routine.  Part of our routine is math workstations for 20 minutes.  Below is a few we recently finished.

Gingerbread Kid Cookies

We read all about different gingerbread men and a girl so we had to make our own.  At first I made one big gingerbread boy but the girls wanted a girl too.  So I started all over.

 

Roll the dough back out

The Spunky Monkeys were amazed how I made the gingerbread boy
but not Xander.  He said, "She's good cause she's got skills!"
 Xander got a high five elbow bump!

Watch the "skills" in action

A gingerbread boy and girl are made

Have to have details and drop cookies too

After cooking, adding icing

Yummy!
