Can you build with toast? 🍞

Image
 This week the tigers have continued our work on structures by testing out our theory of building with toast.  Will it be better than the bread? 🥖  We made some marvellous houses with our own blend of cement (icing sugar and honey) 🍯 . We found that because the structure was harder it was far better to build with. 

Palm Sunday 🌴

 This half term the Tigers will be learning all about the events of Holy Week. Today we have started by learning all about Palm Sunday when Jesus arrived in Jerusalem. We created palm leaves to celebrate his arrival as we recreated the scene. 🎬 

Can you build with bread? 🍞

 In D&T this week we are trying to answer the question  ‘Can you build with bread?🍞’ In groups we were tasked with building a bread house. We created and tested our own cements using honey, icing sugar, water and lemon juice to try to make the perfect blend. We had lots of different approaches, from making small bricks, whole slices and long thin walls.  We came to the conclusion that it is really not easy to build with bread and perhaps next time we could toast it to give it more strength.

On Wednesday, the Tigers joined in with the ‘infant festival’ at Buxton Community School for a fun afternoon of team building and sports skills. We had a fabulous afternoon and everybody tried their very best at the mini workshops and worked together brilliantly! 🏅
