The addition of flour and water made the compost much stickier and the children experimented with the consistency. They were very restrained when helping themselves to their required ingredients. They helped each other and at one point I heard a little voice say,”We are a team.”
Look out for some fabulous writing done on Friday. This will be displayed in the classroom from Monday.
Cool Badger Food.
So many beautiful moments in learning.
The dry sandwich filling didn’t work so. we tried adding water. This was great fun but the filling was still a bit flaky. We really needed to add something else to hold it all together.
This week, we have been on an exciting trip to Preston Park, where we explored their Victorian Street and the museum, and we had a handwriting lesson in a themed classroom. We were shocked at some of the punishments for children in Victorian schools. Did you know that if a child wrote with their left hand, and was caught doing so, they would be made to stand at the front of the classroom with their fingers inside a finger-trap?
Take a look at our exciting day below:
Following on from our trip to the forest,the badger came and ate all the sandwiches we had made. He left us a message asking us to make some more and write him a list of all the things we used. This caused a lot of excitement and a huge desire to write. Some spent the whole morning writing for the badger,filling two pages of ingredients. Some constructed their own sentences asking for help when needed.
The excitement continued outside where more sandwiches were made using dough and stuff.
Lucky Badger and his naughty brother had lots of food.
All of the work done is up on the walls in the classroom.
More Badger snacks will be created soon to extend our exxploration of sandwich fillings. It could get messy!
