Last week in Science class, we churned butter. This integrated with a larger Social Studies unit based on Colonial life and Pioneers.
After writing all the materials and instructions for churning butter, along with predicting what would happen, how long it would take for their butter to churn and a few other things....
...students worked with a small group churning a small container of cream to turn it into butter. Students observed the results of their labor and tasted the buttermilk they helped create as well.
Everyone had fun churning the butter but I think everyone had MORE fun tasting the results of their hard work!
Crunch!
Yum!
