PICKLES

On Monday the second graders followed a recipe for pickling cucumbers.  They all had a little part in washing the cucumbers and measuring ingredients.  We really used our sense of smell to check out the onions, garlic, and dill that went into the recipe.  The big jar sat on our table for four days and we watched the cucumbers change into pickles.  On Friday, the jar was put into the fridge and that afternoon we ALL had a taste test.  Here we are just getting ready for the first taste.

I promised that if they didn't like it they could throw it away, but I was proud of everyone for at least trying them.

Here are the kids that didn't think very highly of pickles.  Oh well!

YAY!  Look how many more kids LOVED the taste of the pickles.  The purple chart in the background is where we made a pictograph of who liked pickles.
