Ethan read a book called "Eyewitness, I Survived the Attacks of 9/11." He only had 2 book reports left to do and this was his 8th. He read it last month but didn't know what to do for an interesting book report. He has set the bar high with his other reports and didn't want to let anyone down.
We went to breakfast for our monthly "date" and he said it was starting to stress him out. So we brainstormed about what he could do. We came up with making a cake. So we baked a cake and then Ethan helped me frost it. On Monday, I took the cake up to his class at the end of the day and he did his report.
Ethan had the ingredients for the cake which he had taped papers to that had the characters, plot and scene on them. He put on an apron and then put the ingredients in a bowl to mix them up. Then he gave the bowl to me to take to the school kitchen to have them "magically cook it." While I waited in the hall for 2 minutes, Ethan took questions. Then he asked me to bring the cake in. The class went nuts!
We served them the cake while Ethan answered questions about how to make it. He did a great job and had a great time doing it.
He only has 1 more book report to do and it is supposed to be a biography. We have to try and find one that will be interesting for him.
