Trying new things

We have been reading and writing lots of fantastic poetry about food. We tried a new food, dried cranberries. Some people loved them, some didn't but everyone agreed they were strange and wrinkly! We used our five senses to think of describing words for the cranberries and then we used them to write our poems. We also used similes in our work, can you spot them?

Dried Cranberry
It looks slimy and wrinkly.
It feels oily and bumpy.
It smells sweet and sour.
It looks wrinkly like old people.

Alphabet soup

 

On Friday we read a fantastic story called Stone Soup. In the story the young man tricks the old lady into making some soup for him by saying he has a magic soup stone, but really the lady gives him all the ingredients to make the soup. We made alphabet and vegetable soup. When we were finished we had to write the instructions for making our soup and then we tried it. As you can see some of the children loved it!
