My class earned a "cooking" day, which Kistler was reading about food history, learning how cheese is made, eating fresh yogurt cheese, and making saladcrolls.
It was quite the successful day! Some ate 3 rolls.
A few went home with bean sprouts they ate like popcorn.

No school today! And I think today is the perfect day to experiment in the kitchen. What's your favorite no bake bar? I have gluten free graham cracker crumbs, several cans of dairy free sweetened condensed milk and lots of time! #nobake

Paper booklet with ideas for hobbies.

Mini booklet laid flat so cover and back are shown. Cover reads February Hobby Challenge. Back has information for guardians.

Hobby Challenge Boklet laid flat. Left page encourages students to visit new places. Right page encourages students to try a Hobby their adult enjoyed.

In an effort to encourage my students to find hobbies, I am starting a monthly hobby challenge. I'm ridiculously proud of the little booklet! #teaching #5thgrade #unpluggedhobbies

An off white t-shirt is shown, with the words In A Galaxy Far, Far Away... The shirt shows 6 line drawings of star wars creatures. Left to right top row is Chewbacca (a wookie), a porg, and a stormtrooper. Second row shows the heads of a cat-like alien, C3PO, and another alien.

Close up of an off white cotton t-shirt with line drawings of star wars creatures. The outline of Chewbacca is embroidered over with brown thread.

A few years ago I bought this star wars shirt from the juniors department of Target. Despite being too small, I kept it and used it as a decorative pillow cover. Today I realized I could embroidery over the lines and the use it as patches. #embroidery

Can we stop judging people for what they read?
If you enjoy reading “dark” or “twisted” storylines it does not always mean you have trauma or need therapy.

People can and do separate fiction from reality. liking a genre does NOT mean you want it to happen in real life.
