Decorating our biscuits!
This morning, we spent time mixing the icing to decorate out biscuits with. We made red, blue and yellow icing that was sticky and gloopy! We loved drizzling and spreading the icing over the gingerbread men to decorate them.
Independent write preparation
In our writing lesson today we have been ordering pictures from the Ice Age clip, to help us order and sort our writing. This is preparation for our independent write next week.
Which materials are magnetic? 🧲
Yesterday afternoon, we explored a range of materials to investigate which were magnetic or non magnetic. We sorted our materials into 2 groups. We also discovered that that attraction was stronger with some items. To help us understand why some metal materials are magnetic we watched a video that explained for an item to be magnetic, it just contain cobalt, iron or nickel.
Case Study reflection 🧲🌎
Today, we completed our case study reflection for Case Study 2. We reflected on all our learning over the case study and answered some questions based on our learning. I was blown away by the amount of knowledge the children had remembered.
Final Product Baking
Crew MW have spent the morning baking our gingerbread men to sell on Friday! We will be raising money to buy some new story books for the children in EYFS, for the school library and to give out in the local community. We measured, poured, sifted, stirred and rolled to create our gingerbread men, talking about what we could see and what we could smell. We worked really well in our small groups to complete our baking and we had lots of fun!
Arctic or Antarctica animals?🐻❄️🐧
Today we have learnt which animals live in Antarctica and which animals live in the arctic circle. We found out that penguins live in Antarctica and the bottom of the world and polar bears live in the Arctic at the top of the world. We organised other animals like reindeers, killer whales and elk’s and seals.
