This week, we combined the our FOSS science unit...Solids and Liquids into a fun Farm to School connection! Our 2nd graders learned how to make butter! I first ask the kiddos how milk gets to the store. Then, we show the vimeo video The Milk Maker from the Reading Rainbow found at
http://vimeo.com/6240198. After we watch up to 20 minutes and the cow says "Moo", we stop to work on our sheet that I made.. in my
Milk Makers: Let's Make Butter Pack.
