Fairtrade fortnight

Today we used our knowledge of money to calculate the costs of the ingredients to make a banana loaf. We calculated that each loaf would cost £2.50 to make. We then baked  banana loaves using some fairtrade ingredients.


In class we sliced the loaves in to 1/10s and then calculated the price of each slice. We decided we would add 10p to each slice if we were selling, making a total profit of £1 per loaf. Then we all got to eat a delicious warm slice !

 

 

Making Thinking Visible

We “stepped inside” the characters from our class novel The Secret of the Kelpie” by Lari Don. Working in groups we talked about what the characters would think, how they would feel and what they would do next. We created a book with all our work.
We can tell you all about the legend of the Scottish Kelpie, just ask us!

Fractions with Shortbread

We have been learning all about fractions in maths. Today we made shortbread and then cut our shortbread shapes into fractions. We then decided what fraction of the shortbread looked bigger ( and which fraction we would like to eat!)

We even cut our tray of shortbread into 1/14ths so that all the staff could try our delicious shortbread.
