It's a wrap!

We have been working really hard in 2A over the past couple of weeks.

In Science, we have been learning about food chains. The children are able to identify the source and put the animals in their correct position on the food chain. 

We looked at Life cycles of plants and animals, understanding the stages of life from babies to adults. Children were taught about metamorphosis, looking at the life cycle of frogs and butterflies as examples.

This week in DT, we have been discussing healthy eating and the importance of a balanced diet. Children learned about the five food groups and which foods would fit into each category. We agreed we could all be a little more healthy :)

After designing their own lunch wrap, containing an ingredient from each food group, children tasted different combinations of fruit and vegetables, describing the taste and texture. We even got to try Dragon fruit!

Finally, we made (and ate) our own wraps. All that while practising for our sharing assembly....phew!
