Kelebek Corncakes

8/10/2011

There are lots of ways to incorporate food experiences into learning. The other day we had soup and my daughter wanted cornbread.  I mixed up some cornbread batter, thinned it to pancake batter consistency and used a teaspoon to drop two "wings"  of batter close to each other and I trailed a line of batter between them to form the body.  Dilara was quite satisfied with the result, and we learned kelebek/kelebekler. This is such an adaptable idea--airplanes, basic shapes (triangle, oval, circle) can be learned the same way. I'll share our other experiences and as always, I am appreciative of comments and ideas from others.
