We love to bake different cakes and tasty treats during our cooking sessions at school. 
All the boys in the Daisies class have been working hard to measure out cups of ingredients with support, count the cups as they’re added to a bowl, and have been doing well to mix ingredients together independently.
Why not bake a cake with your family and show off your baking skills! You can comment a photo of our finished bake, or let us know what you made.
Collect the ingredients you need.
Measure out ingredients with support.
Mix the ingredients together in a bowl.
Put your cake in the oven with help from an adult.
Miss Wilson has made a tasty Banana loaf. She made sure she had all of her ingredients ready, followed the recipe to mix them together in a bowl, then put the cake in the oven to bake. Doesn’t it look yummy?
This week’s blog challenge is all about numbers!
Using pens, paint or chalk, practise forming different numbers and then count out some everyday objects and correspond these to the numbers you have written. For example write number 6, then match 6 pieces of pasta beside the number.
For an extra challenge, you could try adding numbers together and finding how many ways you can to make the number ten.
Remember, all blog challenges are optional, and can be completed at your own pace 
Here’s some examples:
We are missing you all lots, and hope you are enjoying the sunshine.
At school, we were learning all about bugs and insects by watching ‘A Bug’s Life’.

Miss Couser went on a bug hunt in the park and found lots of different insects!
Have a hunt in your garden or local park to see if you can find any. You could take pictures with a camera or phone and share them in the comments.
Hi Daisies!
We hope you all had lots of fun over the spring holidays, and got to enjoy the sunshine. The Daisies ladies have been busy doing lots of different things, but we have been missing Willowbank and all the boys in the Daisies class lots!
Miss Couser spent the holiday doing lots of tiding and painting in her house. She also enjoyed having a few pajama days reading books and watching lots of movies, and spending lots of time with her rabbit, Arlo, who enjoyed the extra cuddles.
Mrs Moran has been busy decorating too, and did a great job of painting her garden fence. She has been spending lovely time with her family and made their own ‘Countdown’ inspired game which was great fun. Mrs Moran also did a very important job by helping Mr Moran to cut his hair!
Miss Wilson has been enjoying the lovely weather and has been spending time in her garden planting flowers, and has gone for some walks at the seaside. She has also spent time relaxing and reading books.
Mrs Cogswell has been enjoying the sunshine with her family and has gone of lots of walks. She has been showing off her art skills making rainbow pictures for her window to thank everyone who is working hard to help each other.
What activities did you do during the holidays? We hope you had lots of fun!
This week, we have been confident individuals by exploring lots of different areas of science.
On Tuesday, we welcomed visitors to our school and took part in lots of activities. we particularly enjoyed exploring stars and planets in the planetarium, and creating out own stomp rockets before competing to see who’s would travel the furthest.
We have also been taking part in experiments within the class and created our own hypothesis by discussing what we thought might happen after each experiment. We were responsible citizens by taking turns with peers.
We had lots of fun for World Book Day.
We were successful learners as we explored the story of the BFG through sensory resources.
We made our own dream jars and were confident individuals choosing what colours of food colouring and glitter we wanted to add.
In the afternoon, we made our own BFG ears and queen crowns, then had a royal tea party just like the BFG did in the book. We were responsible citizens sharing snacks, choosing healthy options, and chatting to our friends.
We have been exploring the story of ‘Giraffes Can’t Dance’ for LGBT awareness month. We enjoyed exploring how we all have different hobbies, and are all similar in some ways and different in others.
We created our own ‘Gerald the Giraffe’ puppets and were effective contributors and used our favourite colours to create a herd of giraffes that were all different.
We have been exploring the story of St. Valentine this week and made confident choices when using a selection of art materials to create our own Valentine’s cards.
We were responsible citizens and used the Willowbank post box to deliver our cards to our friends.
We worked hard on our enterprise project this term and have been choosing some lovely gifts to make out loved ones for valentines day. We were very careful to not waste any resources as we made each project, and shared whether or not we were happy with the finished product.
