We were super star listeners and followed the instructions she gave us very carefully. Best of all it was lots and lots of fun!

Finished Art

Awesome Artists

Friday was an "Art Attack" day across the school. We all had an amazing time and thanks to Mrs Jacobsen's fabulous wealth of knowledge we developed a great skill-set and produced some absolutely amazing finished pieces.

W.a.l.t:
Observe, sketch and shade "still life" objects.

Takeaways - the good, the bad and the ugly!

Takeaways are something we all love to have now and then.
Today we looked at which ones are a healthy choice and which ones aren't so good for us.
Some takeaways have virtually no fat, some a reasonable amount and some lots and lots - we called them the "Good", the "Bad" and the "Ugly"

Lolly Cake - Writing and Maths

Today for maths and writing we made Lolly Cake and it was delicious.
We were learning how to share shapes into equal fractions of 1/3s and 1/4s and to write instructions using lists, numbered steps and powerful verbs.

Here is the recipe we wrote together.

Lolly Cake
Ingredients:

• 150g butter
• 1 packet Eskimo lollies
• 1 can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 packet malt biscuits

Equipment:

• baking paper

Steps:

1. Wash your hands before you start.
2. Cut the Eskimo lollies into 1/3s or 1/4s.
3. Place the lollies into the plastic bowl.
4. Crush the biscuits inside a plastic bag with a rolling pin and put them into the bowl too.
5. Melt the butter and condensed milk slowly in the pot.
6. Stir the mixture carefully.
7. Pour the melted mixture into the big bowl with the biscuits and lollies.
8. Stir it altogether.
9. Tip the mixture onto a tray and make it into a log shape. (line with baking paper)

Toast Fractions

We are exploring how fractions work in maths.
We have worked out that knowing what the "whole" is very, very important.
Today the "whole" is a piece of toast. We had to put different toppings on and then describe the fraction of the toast that we had put it on.

Because we are very clever we also began to learn how to write instructions. :-)

Healthy Eating - Breakfast

Today we shared what we had eaten for breakfast on our ClassBook.
It was exciting to see that everyone in Room One had gobbled up good choices in food to start their day. Well done everyone!
Can you tell what the best choices are to eat?

Healthy Eating - Sugary Drinks

Lee from Project Energize came and worked with us today.
We learned all about making good choices about what we drink.
