Willowbank School, KilmarnockThis week we are still continuing with our Australian Theme and made Aussie Pizza – which was lovely. We looked at the animals in our story and made there noises – squawks, hisses and howls.
For numeracy we have been working on our money skills and shape recognition. And played Snakes and Ladders!!
On Monday we visited the library again and the lovely ladies read us a sensory story. We chose our books to bring back to school and they even gave us books that we could take home and keep.
On Thursday we made French toast in the cookery room. We whisked the eggs and milk together and the ladies dipped the bread in and put it in the frying pan. We even rolled the bread flat and added in some cheese. The boys were all effective contributors during this time and patiently waited their turn. While we were waiting for the French toast to cook we looked at some pictures of different foods and decided which ones we should eat less of to be healthy.
This week in the Pine Room we have being working from an ICE Pack Unit, and looking our Personal Network – we have seen some lovely photos from home in our homework sheet. We looked at what made as happy and what made us sad.
We have been working on our Australian Theme, making pictures and Anzac biscuits.
Yesterday for cookery we made some French food. We were responsible citizens are all made sure we washed our hands before making our food in the cookery room. Our theme is France and we created our own Eiffel Tower creations using fruit. We used blueberries, banana and raspberries. The boys added their own fruit to their own tower. They all looked amazing.
We also made our own croissants and pain au chocolat. The boys enjoyed rolling the pasty to create them. We placed them in the oven to cook and the enjoyed them with butter and jam for our snack with the fruit from our Eiffel Tower creations.
This week we looked at our Global Goal – Reducing Inequalities – and considered ‘Access for All’ we looked at different ways access can be made easier, including wheelchair ramps, access buttons, guide dogs for the blind and hearing aids. Then we made a poster to be displayed in the Pine Class.
In cookery we were confident individuals making mini pavlovas, in keeping with our Australian theme – they were yummy!!!

We have had a busy week back at school. The Sunflower boys have enjoyed doing lots of different activities. On Thursday we made French toast. We had to crack the eggs into the bowl and then use to whisk to whisk up the egg. Some of the boys even helped to flip the French toast in the frying pan. Most of us tried our finished product. 
Yesterday the Pine Class enjoyed making biscuits. We floured the work surfaces to make sure the dough did not stick, rolled the dough nice and thin and cut out different shapes. While they were baking we decorated some Mrs Wilson had make earlier – with lots of spots!!! Do you think they look like Pudsey??
