Balls
Dear Parents,
This week we started our investigation period by just experimenting with them. Around the classroom you can find different centers that have activities related to this topic. By today thursday we could see how much they have learned by just playing with them. Our questions of the day have supported their learning by braodening their understanding while being creative.
This study shows how to us children's interest in balls to help them explore social studies and science concepts related to the features and nature of balls, and to use skills in literacy, math, technology, and the arts as they investigate.
Best regards,
Miss Camila and Miss Javiera

The Little Red Hen
The dry ingredients...
5 pounds of flour
1 cup of sugar
2 tablespoon of salt
For the yeast.. (you can also buy the instant one and add 3 and a half tablespoons of that one)
4 cups of warm water
5 envelopes of yeast
2 tablespoons of sugar
Wet ingredients
4 eggs
1 3/4 of oil
Process
On a small bowl you mix the yeast with the warm water, add the sugar and you let it sit, until it rises.
On a separate and BIG bowl add the dry ingredients all together: flour, sugar and salt.
Mix eggs and oil together and then you add them to the dry ingredients.
Last, you add the yeast and knead the dough until its even. Cover the dough with a towel and let it rising for about an hour.
When finished... cover the loaf with some egg on top of it so that it gets golden brown in the oven.
Some people also add sesame seeds or poppy seeds or both.
Tongue Twisters
Alliteration is also practiced when we say tongue twisters. Alliteration is the repetition of a certain sound.
This week we used the tongue twsiter:
