🍦 Throwback Thursday! 🍦

Who says learning can’t be sweet? Our 2nd graders, in Mrs. Landry's class, combined reading and science as they read a story about making ice cream and then put their learning to the test! 📚🔬

Students shook bags of milk inside bags of ice and discovered just how long it would take to transform their ingredients into a delicious frozen treat! 🥛❄️🍨

Learning, experimenting, and a little bit of shaking made for a SWEET day! 💕
