The Pancake

This week the younger ones have been reading and writing about another traditional tale; this time it is  The Pancake.  As part of their learning they made pancakes for everyone to try and for them to take home!

In Scotland the sort of pancakes they made are called Scotch pancakes; in England some people call them drop scones. I wonder if they are like the Welsh cakes Class 5 at Caegarw School asked us if we made?

Pandi the Brave

Pandi the Brave

Written by Nathene Arnaoutis

Illustrated by Sarah Adams

Pupils in P2-6 listened to the story of Pandi the Brave. In groups of 3, they wrote a description of the beginning, middle and end of the story. All groups then peer assessed each other’s work. They then added their group opinions of the story at the end.

Pandi the Brave

Pandi was very helpful except he was scared of the dark, but he could speek to the monkeys in the trees.  His dad was the chief of the tribe. His 3 brothers Jobee, Shaka and Cetswayo were inthe tribe too. All Pandi wanted was to be in the tribe with his leopard skin and spear. Every day he went to the cows in the field. One of the cows was smaller than all the rest and that one was Pandi’s favourite.

Well done on your work. HS MA KB

I would like to have seen a little information at the beginning on where the story is set. Miss A.

Pandi goes to bed, he can’t get to sleep because there is a horrible cold storm, in the distance he could hear a faint sound coming from the outside, He could here Tugela and she was crying for help, Pandi tried to block out the sound but he couldn’t the more he heard it he knew he would have to go out.

He ran looking for Tugela, he could hear faint cackling sound in the distance. But the cackling noise was coming from the wolfs, he ran on he found Tugela,

Tugela was trapped under a rock. Pandi ran to get his father and brothers. They carried Tugela home.

We had to change the font to read it. We all like the rest of it though. PS if you want to change the font back then you can. By Mia, Phoebe and Abby

You describe the middle of the story in detail.

I think there are a number of commas in the first paragraph which should have been full stops. Miss A.

When he wakes up in the morning his mum and dad are at his bed side they prestened him with a leopard skin and spear. Then his brothers gave him gifts Jobee gave him a mouse ,Shaka gave him a catapult and Cetswayo gave him a whistle . He was happy he put on his leopard skin and grabbed his spear and ran out side and  danced in the sun .

Check your spelling mistakes, good ending but you might want to add missing words to the presents. CP, BC and LA

I agree with CP, BC and LA that it is important to check your spelling. I think this is a detailed description of the end of the story. Miss A.

Digging for the Yell Show

On Friday we dug up the tatties for the Yell Show. We dug up the British Queen and we dug the black tatties. We rubbed the soil off the tattie and we put the British Queen on the table to make a pile. Then we put labels for which are which. We put the vegetables in a plastic bag and we put the vegetables in   boxes and we put the tatties in one box and we put the leeks, carrots and the beetroot in the second box.

Getting Ready for the Yell Show

The Yell Show is  where we put things like art, pets and gardening things.  We entered our vegetables in to the Yell Show, We have potatoes, carrots, beetroot, peas and  leeks. We dug up the tatties in pairs, Leah dug up the  tatties with Me, We dug up Forty fold tatties they were a light purple colour when they came out of the tattie bag. I also pulled up leeks . The leeks where tough  to pull out of the gardening bed. Next we went  inside and we measured them and then wrote them down on a sheet of paper, Then we tried to match up what looked like the best four tatties they had to be the same size. Next we wrote labels saying the name of the school and what category the tatties were in. Then we got our photos taken with the vegetables in front of us. Next we bagged the vegetables in  plastic bags being careful that they wouldn’t fall of the plate that we put them on, Then we gave Miss Breyley the plants to take in her car to the Yell Show which is in East Yell.

 

 What sort of show do you have near you?
