Baking Day Fun!
About the Program:
This year in Ms. Boyle’s class, I will be working at a baking centre once each month. At this centre, I will be developing my language, math, health and social skills, while I demonstrate lots of Kindergarten Program expectations, like this one: Social Skills 2.1: demonstrating self-reliance and a sense of responsibility. Most of all, I’ll have a wonderful time learning about food sources, and making something that tastes good, all by myself.
My teacher will let you know each month what is needed from home, and I’ll be writing a letter home each time we bake, to tell you all about how I prepared, baked, and cleaned up all by myself. I will not be using knives, hot water, or a stove, and adult volunteers will help the whole class. My teacher is being really careful about food allergies, too (not nut products!) and all of the food we make will follow the nutrition policy. You are invited to help too, or come on in and watch to see what the baking centre is all about.
Ms. Boyle will be providing all of the baking utensils and equipment and I may be asked to bring in a specific ingredient on our baking day (example: ½ cup of brown sugar). We have to be careful not to send in any bulk food ingredients to be sure my friends with allergies are safe!
