Holiday Bakers

Coming to you a little late this week...the holiday rush has got us VERY busy at PrairieWood.  This past week we spent most of our days mixing up a variety of cookies to share with our friends, work supervisors, job coaches, bus drivers, and administrators as a THANK YOU for all they do to help us become independent adults.  We whipped up batches of Oatmeal Rasin, Chocolate Chip, Sugar, and Peanut Butter Blossom cookies, along with Peanut-butter Finger bars.  We love learning to bake cookies because it gives us the chance to practice measuring: reading measurements, finding the right measuring cups and spoons, and making sure we level whatever we are measuring so we get just the right amount.  We will spend time next week baking and packaging our cookies.  Our guest blogger is Ahsia.  Here is what she had to say about her week at PrairieWood...


"This week at PrairieWood I learned to use the PODD book to talk about what we are going to do.  I enjoyed making chocolate chip cookies.  I was challenged by knowing when to push the button to get off the bus at Hy-Vee.  At PrairieWood I would like to learn more about baking cookies."

See you next week!
