What a wonderful week we have had this week! The children have enjoyed DT week learning lots about seasonality and making some yummy food.

In reception we made a delicious apple cake. They helped to weigh out the ingredients, add them to the bowl, mix it and then add the sliced apple. After cooking, we enjoyed eating it!

In KS1, we made kebabs. The spend a lesson investigating the need and consumers for kebabs. Then several following lessons learning about seasonality and healthy eating. The children enjoyed sorting fruits and vegetables, thinking about whether the vegetables grow above or below ground. The children also sorted different foods into categories such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats and so on. Later in the week, we practiced cutting using knives, designed our kebabs and then made them. The children carefully used the taught techniques to cut the different fruits and vegetables for their kebab. Finally, we evaluated our finished product thinking about what went well and how we can improve them.
