My granddaughter is doing a book report on The Miracle Worker, & needs to pass out a food associated with the book. Any ideas?

Easy. Tell your granddaughter to bring in a pitcher. Any
pitcher will do, but a clear pitcher, glass or plastic, would probably be most
appropriate. Tell your granddaughter to fill the pitcher with water and to pass the
filled pitcher around he class. Tell her to ask the students what was in the pitcher. Of
course they wall all say, "Water."

Then tell her to explain
to the class that saying water, or wah wah, is the Miracle from which the play,
The Miracle Worker gets its name. For it is when Annie Sullivan and
Helen are outside re-filling a pitcher of water at the pump that Helen first makes the
vital connection between what is being spelled by Annie in her hand and the real
substance of the cold, wet water she feels. It is then that Helen learns to communicate:
to understand what is being told to her and how to tell others what she thinks in her
sightless, silent world.

Technically, water is not exactly
a food, but, for demonstration purposes, it will suffice... and may well earn your
granddaughter an A.
