As part of our World War Two theme, Primary 7 and Primary 7/6 made delicious apple crumble. We have been learning about Rationing and how certain foods were only available in small quantities. We also found out that many people had allotments to grow their own fruit and vegetables. Each class had 45 minutes to make 4 apple crumbles. There was lots of team work involved. Miss Armstrong was very impressed! Here are some pictures of us in action..
1st Star – We had another successful show practice on Thursday and hope it continues.
2nd Star – We enjoyed cooking apple crumble on Wednesday. We have been learning about rationing during WW2 and how many people had their own allotments to grow their own fruit and vegetables.
Wish – To practise the school show scenes on the stage.
This week’s challenge was to make the longest paper chain using 5 pieces of A4 paper, sellotape and a pair of scissors. Each team had 15 minutes to complete the challenge.
The winning team was from Mrs Williamson’s class with a chain measuring 5.2m. Well done!
