It has been a little while since our last post. PrairieWood Students had a shortened week last week, due to the culmination of the first semester. While it was a short week, we were very busy with cooking and cooking. PrairieWood students provided a delicious breakfast for all the high school faculty. We made muffins, coffee cakes, homemade granola and yogurt, fresh fruit and a sweet Chex Mix. What a success it was. All the high school faculty were so appreciative of the delicious breakfast. Below are several pictures of the preparations.
Our return to school on Monday brought a lot of changes. We started a new schedule and some of us even started new jobs! We will now be all participating in our life skill activities in the morning, divided into three groups and then all working in the afternoon. Only a week into this schedule and we are all very happy with it. It gives us more time to work in smaller groups on daily activities such as cooking, chores, city bus, grocery shopping, etc. The change has been a challenge as well, remembering what day each student does a particular activity, knowing when to change into my work clothes...it has definitely worn us out!!! We are ready for the weekend! We did take some time this morning to relax and enjoy a wonderful concert at Westdale Mall provided by the Iowa Accordian club. What great music!!! Our feature blogger this week is Cassie B. Here is what she has to say about this busy week at PrairieWood...
"This week at PrairieWood I learned where materials were at work like: dusting mitt, Windex, papertowels, vacuum, broom and dust pan. I enjoyed making breakfast burritos for my cooking project. I was challenged by the inventory I took at Io-Dis-E-Ca, just in case of a fire for insurance. At PrairieWood I would like to learn more about tasks at Camp Io-Dis-E-Ca."
Have a great weekend everyone...and STAY WARM!
