The IE 6 and 7 class has been practicing their reading skills for about 3 weeks-- predicting, using book bits, discussing, practicing vocabulary, reading, and comparing and contrasting--- with variations of the story Stone Soup. Monday they went outside to find stones for their very own soup, and then on Tuesday we read another variation-- just to get them thinking about the true meaning behind the story. Was the stone really what made the soup good? Which 2 ingredients were put into the soup, but not eaten?
Well, today they made and ate their very own stone soup! I was a little nervous about what it would taste like... as I watched them add the ingredients (a little of this and a LOT of that). However, it turned out great! We didn't have any left at the end of class-- they ate it all!!
