Today was taste test day! The girls learned about the different foods that the rain forests provide. We watched a short video on how chocolate was made many years ago by the indigenous tribes. After the video, the girls participated in a taste test of different spices that come from the rain forest. The following spices were used: Allspice, Cocoa, Black Pepper, Cinnamon, and Vanilla. Ask your daughters what they thought of vanilla!
We also started our measuring unit in math as we talked about non-standard units of measuring. First, the girls had to draw an animal then measure that animal using their thumbprint. After that, they also began measuring different parts of their body using unifix cubes.
