As we have been talking about staying safe for Bonfire Night, we had a fire in the garden last week to support our discussions. Toasting marshmallows also gave us the opportunity to talk about what happened to them as they were heated over the fire and they certainly tasted delicious once our experiment was over. The children used some good vocabulary as they talked about how the marshmallows felt once they were cooked as they found them “sticky”, “stretchy” and “like a spider”.
