School trip to Carluccios!
22 May, 2014On Sunday the children went on a school trip to Carluccios. They had a great time there, learning how to make pizza dough and then their own pizzas! At the end of the trip they tasted what they had made. It connected very well to our Unit of Inquiry about ‘Products’ and how food goes through a process of change before it reaches us.
Cooking!
7 May, 2014Preschool Three have been cooking every week during our unit about Products. So far we have made rice krispie buns and pizza. Tomorrow, Rainbow Class will be cooking bread and observing the changes bread goes through as it is being made. Also as part of this Unit of Inquiry, we have discussed food origins as well as clothes and how certain types of clothes are made, in particular wool clothes. The children have also been creating a large collage which shows a mother hen with her baby chicks, laying some eggs. The children have worked hard to complete this collage, using paint, cotton wool and yellow shredded paper. The children have really enjoyed learning all these new concepts throughout this Unit!
Some of the mothers in Preschool 3 have visited our classrooms to help us bake different food products!!!
