Spelling Outside

We were telling our partner the words of the week and we wrote them in chalk. We checked each others work – James

James and Rory made up a game called “Spelling Tig”

We played a memory game called ” The Farmers Hen has Laid an Egg”

 

       

 

Susan – I liked getting fresh air because it makes my learning better and fun.

Harris – I liked playing spelling tig because I like running games.

Luke – I liked writing the words down and my partner checking them.

Rory – I liked playing the spelling game that me and James made up.

Sophie –  I prefer going outside to learn and I liked writing with the chalk.

Max – I liked playing the talking memory game.

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 !
