We found that our class had almost an exact three way tie with the three theories. After some talking as a group, Breanna and Addie suggested something clever- why not try all three ways? We prepped three potatoes in three different ways and baked them. Friends\u00a0wrote predictions as to which way they believed would work best.\u00a0We talked about how we were being like scientists predicting and testing results. It also reminded\u00a0us of chefs that have to create recipes for others to enjoy!\u00a0After testing the three potatoes, we discovered that thin slicing was definitely the way to go with the rest of our potatoes. The results were delicious. We are finding that one of the best parts of sharing a treat as a class is sitting in a big circle and talking with one another. Miles commented that it felt like we &#8220;were a family&#8221; when we sat in such\u00a0a way. J&#8217;Den said, &#8220;It feels like we&#8217;re all riding our bikes together when we eat like this.&#8221;\u00a0Such a beautiful\u00a0analogy for\u00a0their feeling\u00a0of community in our classroom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week, Mr. Henderson asked our friends, &#8220;Where do potato chips come from?&#8221; It led to some very interesting conversation about how exactly a chip is made.
