I would like to welcome back all our returning families to another school year and welcome all of our new families. Our first year of Full Day Kindergarten was great and our second year is going to be ever better. Miss Mynes and myself have been working in the classroom to get it ready for the first day and we are excited to have the children come in and see all the changes that have been made.
Today I will be asking the children to help make play-dough. We made play-dough a lot last year so I know many of the children are play-dough experts! Here is the recipe we have been using. Give it a try at home with the children!
Uncooked Play-dough
2 cups - flour
1 cup - salt
1 tbsp - oil
2 tsps - cream of tartar or alum (optional preservative)
1 cup - hot water
Powder paint/food colouring/dry juice mix
Mix powder paint with flour, salt and cream of tartar. Add oil and water.
Knead. Store dough in plastic bags. Play-dough will last about a week maybe longer since we have 21 children in the class using the play-dough at once.
Cheers,
Mr. Pate
