Today students had a math test on our unit on Two More and Two Less. They had to show two more and two less than a given dice, dominoe, playing card and power of ten card. Ask your child how they think they did!

Today we made Chocolate Chip Cookies!

Then we did some "How to" writing to tell how we made them.

We used the following words to begin each part: "First, Then, Next, Finally".

Here is the Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe if you want to make some at home:

2 1/4 cups flour 1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup boiling water

2 cups rolled oats 1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup margarine 1 cup chocolate chips

1 cup brown sugar

Cream margarine and brown sugar together. Dissolve soda in 1/2 cup of boiling water. Add water and vanilla to butter and sugar mixture. Mix well. Stir flour, oats, salt and chocolate chips together in a separate bowl. Put dry ingredients into butter and sugar mixture. Drop by spoonfuls on the cookie sheets. Bake for 12 - 15 minutes at 350 degrees.
