You may get up to 3 points extra credit in your homework category (2 points if you make something yourself or find something unusually appropriate for our period; 1 point for a normal store-bought item or bringing in disposable utensils; 1 point for dressing in period appropriate costume that also conforms to MVCS dress code). Whenever possible, keep your items as local as possible (something you bake at home or is grown or made locally...or something thematically related to our recent reading). The party is often near the end of the quarter. You will take a quiz (usually memorization and one or two reading questions); we will enjoy our party refreshments and watch a video related to our quarter's reading.
Here are foods we generally need. Sign up on the board...usually the Tuesday previous to the party:
* Baked goods (ginger snaps, apple pie, brownies, etc.)* Drinks (water, lemonade, etc.)
* Fruit (strawberries, apple slices, etc.)
* Other: lemon curd, whipped cream, hard-boiled eggs, nuts, dried fruit
Here are necessary disposable items to enjoy our food and drinks:
* Cups (paper)
* Napkins
* Plates (paper)
* Utensils (forks, knives, and spoons)
Other possibilities:
* Perhaps bring in a water boiler and tea.
Be sure you take your containers and such with you at the end of the period.
