We followed the recipe by putting milk, sugar and vanilla extract in a zipped bag. We put this in another zipped bag with ice and salt. After taking turns to give the bag a good shake the milk froze to make ice cream. It tasted rather good and most pupils asked for extra spoonfuls!

We tried to guess which items would float and which items would sink. We weren’t always right! Some items even floated for a wee while then sank! We had great fun. We’ve also enjoyed a treasure hunt, made ‘star’ sandwiches and made tree pictures as we explored seasons.

We collected natural items from the garden to make winter ice ornaments. We filled plastic trays with these items then filled with water. Left outside, overnight, they froze to form natural decorations which we hung in the garden. They glinted in the sunshine. If it stays cold we hope to still see them after the weekend however if it gets warmer will they melt? We’ll just have to wait and see.
The Stars class made ice cream by shaking a zipped bag of milk, sugar and cocoa powder within a zipped bag of ice and salt. We were amazed how quickly ice cream formed. It tasted delicious.
The Stars class have planted vegetable plants in the school garden. We have planted peas, courgettes, pumpkins, carrots, onions and potatoes. We keep them well watered and hope we will have a healthy crop of vegetables to harvest after the holidays.
The Stars Class touched a selection of warm and cold items, showing their preferences. We also chose clothes for hot and cold weather whilst talking about winter and summer.
