Nursery Rhymes.
We enjoyed acting out Nursery Rhymes can you guess what they are?
Fair Trade.
The children have been learning about Fairtrade. The children were asked to bring things in from home that had the Fairtrade logo on it.
What do we know about Fairtrade?
“I have seen it on bananas” Bradley
“You have to be fair ” Tilly.
“It kind of means its a trade for food to go on” Alex.
We went on a walk to the local shops to look for the Fairtrade logo.
We bought bananas and chocolate from the shops with the Fairtrade logo. Then we gave them to the office ladies and our janitor Mr Stern and explained why we bought them.
What have we learned about Fairtrade?
“It is not fair if they are not getting enough pennies.” Macey
” Fairtrade means that farmers get a fair price because they work hard.” Zoe
“What Fairtrade means is that it is not fair if you don’t actually get a lot of money for all your hard work.” Alex.
“I have a bag with a Fairtrade sticker that means the farmer got a fair price.” Isla.

We went on a number hunt at home and around the school and discovered that numbers are all around us.
Martha- “The numbers on the cupboard tells the ladies what cupboard it is. The numbers on the door let you know what class your in and so you know your age”.
Alice- “The numbers help you find your class.”
Samuel- “Numbers tell you what time it is”.
Thomas P- “You use numbers to score and if you don’t score you stay at 0”.
