How-To
I overheard the class on Zoom –
The first grade wrote “How-To’s.”
The teacher told them any topic
Could be theirs to choose.
My fav was “Making Ice Cream.”
The “How-To” is here, complete:
“Put some ice cream in a bowl, add sprinkles,
Then begin to eat.”
Another, “Making Pancakes”
Made me laugh a bit again:
“Put pancakes in the microwave
For 40 seconds, then…
Put on your plate and then you add
Some syrup on the top.”
I guess that making things from scratch
Has somehow seemed to stop.
