Friends were invited to watch the avacados be cut open, help\u00a0 remove the green fruit, and mash it in preperation for guacamole. Each child had a chance to help mash and mix the green pulp into a smooth blend. After it was nice and creamy, we added some salsa (about half a jar) to the avacados and mixed some more. Then, we tried our creation! I was so proud, while not all of our friends loved the guacamole, all of them did try it with brave faces. Below are some of the descriptions from our friends.<\/p>\n<p>Messi- &#8220;It tastes real spicy!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hutton- &#8220;Spicy!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ruth- &#8220;The guacamole is creamy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Zek- &#8220;Mine tastes like peanut butter.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Da&#8217;Sean- &#8220;It tastes like popcorn.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Aidan- &#8220;Its a little spicy, but I like it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>David- &#8220;I didn&#8217;t like it cuz I tasted guacamole before and I didn&#8217;t like it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lucas- &#8220;It tastes like an ice cube, it really did. I dipped it on the top and I got a big chunk like an ice cube.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Regan- &#8220;It&#8217;s GOOOOOOOD!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Monica- &#8220;It&#8217;s good and spicy! I ate all of mine!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"mceTemp mceIEcenter\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<p>\u00a0A lot of interest was taken in the large avocado pits inside the fruit too. Friends asked, &#8220;Why are they so big?&#8221; &#8220;What are those things?&#8221; Jenesis held the pits up to her face and said, &#8220;Look, they look like eyes!&#8221; We decided we would try an experiment to see if we could get the\u00a0avocado seeds to grow. At the end of the day, we placed each of the five avocado seeds inside a large plastic baggie with a wet paper towel. We decided to tape the baggies up against our windows in our classroom and outside in the hallway so they can get light and see if anything sprouts! We learned that the avocado seed could take up to 6 weeks to grow, so we will be practicing our patience.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"mceTemp mceIEcenter\">\n<div id=\"attachment_1889\" style=\"width: 235px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/school60\/files\/2011\/12\/12.6.11-010.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1889\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1889\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/school60\/files\/2011\/12\/12.6.11-010-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/school60\/files\/2011\/12\/12.6.11-010-225x300.jpg 225w, http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/school60\/files\/2011\/12\/12.6.11-010.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1889\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Friends enjoy the end of our Mexico video and sample guacamole.<\/p><\/div>\n<dl>\n<dt><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/school60\/files\/2011\/12\/12.6.11-013.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1890\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/school60\/files\/2011\/12\/12.6.11-013-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/school60\/files\/2011\/12\/12.6.11-013-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/school60\/files\/2011\/12\/12.6.11-013-1024x768.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/school60\/files\/2011\/12\/12.6.11-013.jpg 1066w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/dt>\n<dd>Kaitlyn and Lucas learn a new math game during math workshop today.<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Angela mixes the avocados. \u00a0 &nbsp; This morning as the kids came in, they were greeted with the aroma of fresh avacados.
