We love our new books and the cushions and floor mat for our reading area.
We can take the cushions and relax anywhere when reading a book.
We can read with a soft toy too.

We welcomed Carol back into the class. Having arranged our farm visit she came back into class to tell us more about cereal crops.
She showed us wheat and spoke about which foods are made from wheat.
She showed us oats and we used some to make porridge. It was yummy!
She also helped us make butter- we had to shake cream quite hard! We washed some potatoes, cooked them and put our own butter on them. More delicious food! Thank you Carol!
