Making Butter, Just Like Ma

In our read aloud book, Little House in the Big Woods, we learned about how one of the chore days involved making butter.  Not many of the kids in Room 408 had ever made butter before...

We watched the youtube video on making butter from one of our previous blog posts.  Then we recorded the ingredients in our Think Books, in case we ever want to make it again in the future.

Then we "shook it up" along with the "Shake It Off" Taylor Swift song.

After about ten minutes of shaking collaboration, it started solidifying.

Getting closer....

Once it was finished, we spread it on some bread, it was yummy!

Here is a more in-depth video to enjoy our butter-making festivities:
