PIZZA

As part of our Scrumdiddlyumptious topic we have been discussing the difference between healthy and unhealthy foods and trying to demonstrate how some of our favourite treats can be made a little less damaging to our health and waistbands.
This week the children designed and made their own 'HEALTHY' pizzas in class.

Before the fun of making and eating, we looked at the nutritional value of different ingredients and each group of children was then allowed to choose 3 ingredients to top their pizza.

Choices included peppers, pineapple, sweetcorn, chicken and tuna. Attached are pictures of some of the creations that were devoured on Tuesday afternoon.

As an added bonus, I did promise the class that next week we could try an unhealthy food, as a comparison. 

Have a great weekend and try not to eat too much pizza.

Food (Glorious????) Food

Another week has passed so quickly in Gascoigne class.

This week the children have worked really hard, recapping negative numbers. They have challenged not only  themselves but also myself and Miss Wadlow, by applying their knowledge and skills to a range of tricky maths problems!!

In literacy we have concluded our Instructions unit with a 'Hot Write' set of instructions describing how to get dressed for school. These will then be reviewed before the children are given one final chance to edit next week.

Finally, we have had more Learning Log offerings this week, hence the post title.
This included, Leo making some delicious biscuit sandwiches, Millie provided us with banana, Nutella & strawberry sandwiches and Dexter tested our taste buds with an assortment of chocolate flavourings. It's safe to say white choc with raisins went down a little better than chocolate with a hint of ketchup! Thanks Dex.

Apologies for the lack of photos, hopefully our class iPad will come out of hiding next week ready for our cooking classes and science investigation.

Have a great weekend.
