Making our class Christmas cake


                First we mixed the dried fruit and orange juice and stirred the mixture many times!

     
      Then we creamed together the butter and brown sugar and beat it until the mixture was light and fluffy.           We also beat the eggs.


      Finally, we put all the ingredients together, mixed them once again and put the mixture in the tin.






When the cake was cooked, we then added the marzipan, icing and finally the decorations. We are all very proud of our team effort. Please come into the classroom to see the finished cake before we eat it!!

European Day of Languages 26 September

 
We took part in many different activities to celebrate the European Day of Languages.
We chose to focus on the country of Germany.

 
                                     We had great fun making a collage of the German flag. 

                                                               
  Now it is finished!
 
 
We each made schultute; a cone of sweets and toys which German children bring into school on the first day of the new school year to share with their classmates.
 
We made pretend sweets to put inside.
 

We danced away to German music and had great fun!
 
 
 
Next, we tried some German food. We tasted Kasebrot and Schinkenbrot and drank Apfelsaft.
 
At the end of the school day we shared all our experiences in a whole school assembly.
