Wartime Food – Cauliflower Pie

Last week, we made Cauliflower pie using basic ingredients. This was an opportunity for us to get a feel for what it was like during the war and the challenges there would have been due to rationing. Everyone pushed the self out if their comfort zone and tried it. There were mixed reviews. Some enjoyed the crunchy top while others preferred the soft inside. Some were pleasantly surprised to discover that they actually really enjoyed it and had seconds.

Number Lines

Last week, we became a human number line to help us understand the different intervals. We started quite simple so children could understand that each person went up a set amount. Once we were feeling more confident with it, we missed some numbers out and children had to work together to figure out the missing intervals.

Common and Proper nouns

Last week, we had a reteach lesson on common nouns and Proper nouns as we still werenā€™t 100% confident. To start we sorted some words into groups to remind us that a noun is the name of a person, place or thing. We then completed an activity weā€™re we had to match the common noun with the proper noun. E.g. shop – Asda

Irregular verbs and verb phrases.

In our grammar session today, we deepened our understanding of verbs and learnt about irregular verbs. The root verb in irregular verbs change when writing it in the past tense. For example, the root verb ā€œdrinkā€ has to be ā€œdrunkā€ when writing it in the past tense. We did lots of sorting activities where we sorted irregular and regular verbs. We also played bingo which we loved and canā€™t wait to play it next week!ā˜ŗļø

Biscuits fit for a banquet

Today we became bakers for our next castle job. We were given the task of designing and making biscuits for the King and Queens Friday Night Banquet.

We took time to design our biscuits and then made them. They looked so delicious that we decided to eat them, hopefully the queen wont be too upset!
