The Planets class enjoyed exploring some Indian food today. We had poppadoms, naan bread, samosas, pilau rice, onion bhajis and chicken pakora.
Pupils enjoyed exploring the foods using their senses, some pupils chose just to touch and smell the foods. However, most were brave enough to give the food a taste or a little kiss.
The boys in the Bluebells were successful learners for “Maths Week” this week. On Monday we had a shape hunt indoors, we were all confident individuals finding the different coloured shapes around the room. We then matched lots of shapes on our shape sheet.
On Friday we did lots of number activities including a lovely number tuff tray in our outdoor area. We had different numbers in bowls and had to use the tweezers to put the correct number of pom poms into the bowl. The boys were successful learners all trying to use the tweezers independently and with a little support from the staff.
On Thursday we added ingredients to a bag and placed inside another bag to make our own ice cream. The cold ice and salt when we shook the bag and it froze the ingredients to make the ice cream. We were all confident individuals shaking the bag to create the ice cream. We even had a little try of the ice cream with our own spoons.

During our “Jungle Book” theme work, the Planets class enjoyed participating in a science experiment. We attempted to make bubble snakes.
We all had our own water bottle and cut off the bottom. We wrapped the bottle in a sock, dipped the bottom in a solution of fairy liquid and water and then blew into our bottle.
We managed to create very long bubble snakes and had lots of fun!
