Winter Solstice and Sun Bread

Sun, fun, and dough were on the rise in room 302 as we read the book Sun Bread by Elisa Kleven to celebrate the winter solstice. We also read an article about the winter solstice to build our background knowledge and learned that on the day of the winter solstice, the Northern Hemisphere receives the fewest hours of daylight of any day of the year. We finished the day by making paper lanterns to brighten up this "shortest" day of the year.

"Winter's gray chill has set in and everyone misses the sun-
especially the baker."
