We have had a fabulous first week back and are so excited for the half term ahead, especially our residential to York, which we started discussing this week.
In Maths we have continued our Geometry unit, learning to draw angles accurately, including the lengths of each side. In English we have been looking at formal letters of persuasion and in Science we have looked at how to separate lots of different materials. We have also had our Golden ticket rewards which were great fun.
Our favourite part of the week though was our visit to the cookery classroom at Range High to complete our DT unit. Having tasted and researched various bolognese sauces, in groups we adapted a basic bolognese recipe to make it healthier and then made it at Range. Some additions included the following:
- Celery
- Carrots
- Mushrooms
- Red Pepper
- Cucumber
- Basil
- Thyme
- Mixed Herbs
One group even chose to add a banana and it was surprisingly delicious. We hope you enjoyed eating the sauce with your tea as much as we enjoyed chopping, frying, cooking and reducing it. Please look at all the photographs.
