Prairie Green Students got to spend 2 days at School of the Wild. The first day was quite rainy. We built a fire using a fire starter and wood we gathered. The purpose of the fire was to boil down the sap we had collected from Paula's house. It is necessary to boil the sap in open air because as the water gets evaporated into the air, a sticky substance would get all over your kitchen! We boiled it down and had a tiny bit of syrup to put on our waffles the next day. On the second day, we woke up to a world covered in snow! The day started a little later but we made it up to Macbride and got to play in the snow. We made another fire to build another fire to cook our waffles but this one was harder to get started because everything was wet from the snow! The waffles tasted delicious with our homemade syrup. After lunch it started snowing again and they were the biggest flakes we had ever seen! It was fun catching them on our tongues. Check out all our pictures! By: Jack Wolf, student
