Today we started our information reports about rainforest deforestation. We used plus one to plan together and wrote our introduction and some of the impacts of deforestation.

As today is pancake day and it is Fairtrade Fortnight we made Fairtrade banana pancakes 🥞 in the kitchen. We then used our writing skills to write the recipe.

Today is the first day of Fairtrade Fortnight. We played a game in class to colour in the Fairtrade symbol. We talked about whether the game was fair and how we felt when it was fair and unfair.
