Mince Pie Making in Class 5!
With Christmas upon us, what a better opportunity to get cooking. In small groups, we have made roughly 16 mince to share out and to take home. We found getting the breadcrumbs consistency very challenging and rolling the pastry out thin enough without it sticking to the table. Great fun!
Iron Age Hill Fort @ Cheddon
We a begun building our very own model hill fort and village in our school field. We spent some time designing our hill fort and roundhouses using the knowledge we had gather during our History lessons this term on their features. Then, we went to the school field and started digging the ramparts for our hill fort as well as gathering materials to build our roundhouses. We also got very muddy making a pit full of our 'wattle and daub' to make the walls of our roundhouses. Updates to follow soon.
Second week, we have developed our ramparts and constructed our roundhouses on top of our hill fort. We made our own 'wattle and daub'. We had a great time but a little muddy to say the least.
