Coconut Treats!

Recently we made some coconut treats in class. We used a lot of our Habits of Mind. Read below and see the pictures.

First we had to use PERSISTENCE to crush the biscuits. This took a LONG time.


See? We're still going.


Then we had to STOP AND THINK so we didn't put in too much coconut.



Next we had to MAKE IT RIGHT by putting enough condensed milk in so everything stuck together.


We had to WORK WITH OTHERS to take turns mixing it up.



WOW! We made yummy snacks!

Diet Coke and Mentos


First we lined up because we went to the field. Miss Robertson put the Mentos into the Diet Coke.  And we saw the geyser. Then we saw it again. - By Preses
