Just sharing a card dedicated to my favorite teacher--our daughter Jamie. She's in her third year and doing such an awesome job!
Being a teacher is a challenging job, but very rewarding, too. I know she's glad that summer is a few days away, and a bit sad because her current class is a fave.
Today she's having them make ice cream by tossing around a bag of half and half and ice. They'll be learning math--measuring out the ingredients--and get to reap the rewards of their work....eating the ice cream!
Here's the recipe for anyone who wants a fun summer activity:
- 1/2 cup half and half
- 1 Tbsp. sugar
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
- crushed ice
- 6 Tbsp. rock salt (or Hawaiian salt)
Bon appétit!
What a fun project, Donna! I'm sure she's her students' favorite teacher.....love your card, too!
