Vegetables... in alphabetical order!

We wrote down all the vegetables we could think of - some we like and eat all the time and some that haven't been tried by everyone in the class. Then, after Ms Betts typed them up, we cut the words out and arranged them in alphabetical order...

Quite tricky with so many words to arange - usually we only have ten words to put in alphabetical order!

More yummy soup!

We made soup again last Thursday. A very big thank you to Mrs Wright and Mrs Maguire.  We split into two teams - The Boys with Maddox's mum and The Girls with Zoe's mum, very original!

The Girls...

And The Boys...

Why was Maddox crying and the boys laughing at him?

And then the whole class watched the carrot soup being cooked and blended...very funny watching everyone jump at the unexpected noise!

 Yum, the soups were delicious!

Soup making!

Broccoli and leek soup AND cauliflower, leek and garlic soup

"I had the cauliflower soup and I rate rate 5/10 because it felt all thick and it tasted unusual"
Kimberley

"I think the cauliflower soup was 9/10 beacuse the broccoli soup was too thick. When you put salt in the broccoli soup it didn't taste as cheesy!"
Oscar

"After we made the soup I felt full because I ate Lilly and Lily's soup as well as mine. I loved the cauliflower soup. I thought it was 10/10"
Charlotte

"I tried the broccoli soup but rate it 2/10 because when I ate it I did not like it".
Riley

As you can see we had varied responses to the soup!

While we were making the soup some questions came up...

1. What family is the leek from?
2. How high and how wide does a leek grow?
3. Is garlic from the same family as onions?
4. Is broccoli and cauliflower a winter or summer vegetable? 

Homework tonight, (we forgot to do spelling etc), is to answer a question and post on the blog!

Soup making... coming up!

Tomorrow, Thursday, we were going to make soup and Mrs Wright was coming in to help. However Ms Betts has a stomach bug and won't be in. BUT we will still make soup either on Friday or early next week. We are also planning soup making on Thursday in Week 7 and 8. (More details to come.) This is all part of our healthy food unit - what is good for us, what is not good for us and how to prepare food in a safe and hygienic manner.  There is a also a special activity planned for Week 9 - and transport will be needed, most likely on Thursday the 3rd July. More details to follow.
