Cookie Maps...

Sullivan's class has recently been studying Indiana geography and landforms.

As a culmination activity, the class got to make cookie maps shaped like Indiana, then decorated with the different regions, major cities, rivers, and landforms.  

I was able to help on Day 1 - where the kids got to shape their cookie dough into the state of Indiana.  Easier said than done!




The following day was decoration day, and although I wasn't able to help out, Sullivan saved her cookie (rather than eating it like everyone else) so that we could see her beautiful work!



Beautiful work it is - she did a wonderful job! It was such a fun way to learn the topic.  Sullivan most likely won't forget the regions and landforms of Indiana anytime soon!

Seeing her map made me reminisce.  Quinn did the same activity three years ago.  Check out her cookie map HERE.  

After looking at Quinn's work from a few years back, both girls instantly and proudly claimed, "Mine's better!"  So humble, they are!
