for a day or 20 kids for a year. The process was interesting with the adults running the sealing machines and the kids scooping the nutrients into the bags. Each bag got rice, chicken flavoring, veggies, and soy that will make six meals. This food goes to Africa and all over the world. The only bad thing was that they mentioned God in every other sentence- with our public school and then they invited us to pray over the food- so a little awkward for some of the kids. The program was in Brooklyn Park and it took us an hour to get out there, an hour to prep and 25 minutes to make food, and then an hour and half to clean up and get back. We also had Dairy Queen, yum, before coming back to finish the day with the webquests that the kids who had stayed behind created about the 40s and 50s. The day was good and the field trip ran relatively smoothly. We are going to have a Jeopardy game as a review on Monday of the 1940s and 50s and then have the kids read and summarize the sixties for an assignment.

Feed My Starving Children
Today was a great day. We went to Feed My Starving Children and volunteered. We made 34 boxes of food which will feed 7344 kids 
for a day or 20 kids for a year. The process was interesting with the adults running the sealing machines and the kids scooping the nutrients into the bags.
