We are all learners

 

 

 

Today we watched The Magic Schoolbus and the Digestive System. Benny joined the class and was keen to learn what happens to the food we eat.

 

 

Healthy Eating

We have been looking at lots of different food as part of our inquiry on healthy eating. We have made seed bars, spinach pesto, hot homemade chips, bread (failure) and cucumber sandwiches.
Mrs Reid has been taking photos of these and we want to share some of them... keep an eye out for our relaxing afternoon we had!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Who knew seeds were so yummy?!

Coconut oil, honey, cocoa powder, sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds

We had to melt the coconut oil

Then we added the cocoa and honey

Once the seeds had been mixed in we poured it into a container to set in the fridge

As part of our Healthy Food Inquiry we have been looking at seeds and nuts and how good they are as a snack or as an alternative to meat and other proteins.

We were given a recipe for a chocolate seed bar and decided to have a go!

We all tried the seeds first (some for the very first time) and they were yummy.

We followed the recipe and then had to wait for them to set in the fridge. Boy they were sooooooo yummy, nothing was left and not many mums or dads got to try any that went home!

Buddy Reading is COOL

We are learning about seeds

Today we learned a little about Purapura (seeds). We listened to a story about how pumkin seeds are collected. then we looked at some different seeds. We are going to try to sprout some and then plant them out. We have beans, peas and sunflower seeds all soaking in water for a few hours. We will tip the water out and repeat daily... we shall keep you posted on what happens.
