Happy Wednesday boys and girls, hope you\u2019ve had a lovely week so far. Today I\u2019ve been looking around the house for different things to play with, there\u2019s lots of interesting things but I decided that pasta would be the most interesting thing to explore. We discovered that pasta comes in loads of different shapes and sizes. We found some long thin pasta called spaghetti, some short tube pasta called macaroni and some twirly, whirly pasta called fusilli. Here is a picture of the different pastas we found in the cupboard, can you tell which is the fusilli?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nLachlan wondered how much spaghetti was in the packet and decided to try count, he soon realised there was too much pasta to count so we decided we could count in different ways. We got a ruler and counted how long the spaghetti was and how short the macaroni was.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nThen we realised we could thread the macaroni through the spaghetti. I wondered how many macaronis it would take to fill the spaghetti and predicted it would be about 8 or 9. Lachie used his great mental maths skills from measuring to calculate that it would take 7 pieces of macaroni, he was right.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We found the threading quite tricky because some of the macaroni had a little bend in it but we used our careful pinching fingers to thread it through. It was lots of fun. We then decided we could make some lovelypictures with our pasta. Here is Lachie\u2019s:<\/p>\n

Lachie and I would love to see what else you could do or make with pasta or any interesting materials you can find around the house. If you do make something please pop a picture on the learning journey\u2019s for us to see. In the meantime please take care of your Mummy\u2019s, Daddy\u2019s, brothers, sisters and pets until we can see you again. Big hugs, Pam and Lachie xxx<\/p>\n
