Thunder Cake | Patricia Polacco

Have you ever made a ‘Thunder Cake‘? I love this story and the challenge! Meanwhile I imagine that the ingredients are made with all the elements of a storm, and that a storm is happening inside the cake…

Recipe here: https://www.mycookabook.com/thunder-cake-recipes.html

TheBookHippie Something to put on the TO DO list! 5mo

JenniferEgnor @TheBookHippie I would love to see a cook pull this off on tv, totally old style. Meaning, you have to be on the farm…go get the eggs from the free range chickens, pick the berries…I think if you‘re testing the center of the cake when the first drops of rain begin to fall, as long as the tester comes out clean…that‘s a win! 5mo

TheBookHippie @JenniferEgnor I can get this done sort of 🤣 I can get the eggs from a chicken and pick berries but I have to walk to one drive to the other 🤣🤣🤣 5mo

JenniferEgnor @TheBookHippie no one said a word about driving…go ahead and drive it like you stole it! 5mo

Today I read this lovely Christmas book to the little humans. I never read a Polacco book I didn‘t like.

dabbe I once read PINK AND SAY to a group of reluctant readers in 7th grade and ended up sobbing at the end. Most of them were boys, and one said, “You're weird, Mrs. Abbe.“ 🤣 #loveherbookstoo 13mo

The Lemonade Club | Patricia Polacco

My boyfriend and I have been doing a blog project where we listen to a record we love and match it with a new recipe! This week, to combat the mental health catastrophe that has been the past few days, we went with something lemon light and full of sunshine. (The band is called The Weepies, but it's happy music, I promise!) Hope you check it out and enjoy!

wanderinglynn Looks delicious 😋 5y

madams421 @wanderinglynn Thanks! We have tried lots of good recipes for the project - last week was deep dish pizza 😍😍😍 5y

Mr. Lincoln's Way | Patricia Polacco

pick

This is my stepfather dressed up as the main character.
Mr. Lincoln is the principal of a school where he is loved by all, except one student named Eugene. This student is a bully of other students and causes trouble in his classes. Soon Mr. Lincoln gets through to the student . It took time, patience, and perception. This book teaches students to be kind and accept others differences. Racism is a topic of discussion.
#ucflae3414sp20

ShardaeP UDL: 7.1 Optimize individual choice and autonomy (Eugene has to be his own person and learn to reject his father's racist behavior)
ESOL: Simplify your speech by making it slower and redundant (can be done during a Read Aloud)

Agavitt1 Lol I love that he‘s dressed up as the principal, that‘s really cute! Also I love your UDL principle and your explanation for choosing that one. 5y

DrSpalding Oh my! Your stepdad is awesome! Using the publisher website is very wise. Nice job aligning the universal design and English learner strategies. 5y

Thunder Cake | Patricia Polacco

pick

This picture book has amazing illustrations that shows exactly what is going on in the book. It also uses some diversity language by calling grandma “babushka“. There is no stereotyping in this book and i love that it leaves the thunder cake recipe in the back of the book.
