Today I really enjoyed learning more about Inuit people and their homes.
I have found out that they could burn lamps inside the igloo called kudlik lanterns which they burned using animal fat, the lamp did not melt the igloo, it melts the first layer of ice inside but it’s so cold outside it refreezes and adds insulation!
I drew a traditional Inuit home and a modern one, I also drew an Eskimo and a kudlik lantern.
I did some sums and words this morning too.
This Friday for my big choose I will be showing you how to make one of my favourite recipes. It’s called chocolate hedgehog’s.
So if you would like to join me on Friday to make these delicious treat’s here’s what you’ll need;
Porridge Oats

Butter or Marg,
Sugar, granulated or caster
Chocolate Powder
Milk
Chocolate Sprinkles/Strands
Join me on Friday and I’ll show you what to do.
Hi everyone.
Yesterday I started with the Quick Readings. I did all of them. My mum is trying to get me to remember capital letters and full stops in sentences. She wanted me to write full sentences in my Quick Reading to help practice this.
I then did colouring half and quarters in shapes. Followed up by Epic Reading.
To finish off I looked back at my igloo drawings. I made notes about what is different from my house and what is the same.
The same.
1. I have underbed storage like the inuits do.
2. They still have a window and an entrance like our house.
3. They live with their family under one roof like me.
Different.
1. They don’t have as much space as my house.
2. There is no electric or lights.
3. They don’t have any internet.
4. I don’t think it will be as comfortable as there is no comfortable chairs or mattresses.
5. They won’t have as many things to do as I do.
Today my mum made me practice my sentence writing again to practice my capital letters and full stops. She made me write out animal facts I know and then I had to describe an animal or creature like I did with my Christmas presents. Can you guess?
They have 4 legs and 2 raptors. They have a pair of antenna. They like eating flying insects. They come in many colours, but they are normally green or brown.
I then did the circle half sheet and will now move on to some Sumdog. Looking forward to the class meet up!
Bye for now
Rory.
