Today during DT, we made our own tomato soup… from scratch! We followed the recipe and worked as mini crews to prepare the food before we began cooking. We were really patient with each other showing great HOWLs all morning.

Food labels – Can we identify the healthy options?
As part of our learning, we have explored the labels on food packaging. We have learned about the traffic light colouring which helps us make healthier options when buying food. We had a go at ranking the foods from most healthy to least healthy. Some children were shocked by some foods they though were okay but they are actually really high in sugar.
Massive shoutout to Millie, who has brought us in loads of food packaging (pretty much a weeks worth of packaging) and to the other children who contributed some food packets. I love how Crew Shields are always willing and eager to bring in resources from home to support the learning in class while also taking the pressure off myself to find everything. This is most definitely what crew is all about! 💖
Pancakes – the end of our cooking journey
Over this week we have cooked a starter, main and some healthy dessert options. Today, we have enjoyed some pancakes as we discussed that everything should be eaten in moderation so we’ve had pancakes with maple syrup and raspberries.
As with everything else we’ve baked this week, we’ve had a gluten free pancakes today. We actually preferred the gluten free option. It has really surprised us that in most cases we have enjoyed the gluten free version.
Crew Welburn’s new toy!
We have received a new device in Crew Welburn which we are absolutely loving! It is called a yoto and we use it to listen to our favourite stories and songs. So far, we have listened to ‘Funnybones’, ‘The Highway Rat’ and ‘Animal Stories’. We have listened carefully and acted out parts of the stories with funny actions. We can’t wait to explore all of the other stories we have!

Crew Godley have improved their attendance 🥳
Crew Godley have been working extremely hard to improve their attendance and the number of lates we have in our crew. One of the ways we have done this is through our attendance HoWLopoly. If we’re at school 💯 we’re able to work hard and get smart 🙌🏼 Last week we achieved all of our goals and spun a PJ day on our HoWLopoly. I’m sure the children will have told you this, this is a gentle reminder that it is taking place tomorrow.
Desert fun in MI
Today we made 2 deserts, a healthy take on a muffin and a cookie. Once we had followed our recipe and made both deserts, we looked at which ingredients were included in each recipe and thought about which one was the healthiest. We also thought back to the food groups we had previously discussed. We really did enjoy eating these today! Tomorrow we will make our healthy pancakes which will be the final part of our cooking week.
