Next week is Shrove Tuesday. Therefore, this challenge is all about Pancakes! Today we are presenting you with a selection of Pancake related challenges to choose from.

Design Your Own Pancake Topping:

Lemon and sugar is a traditional topping to put on your pancakes. Can you design something a little more adventurous and personal to you.

Can you create a labelled diagram of what your pancakes will look like?

Can you create a set of instructions to make your pancakes?

Make You Own Pancakes:

Find a recipe. Measure out the ingredients. With the help of an adult cook your own Pancakes.

A Flipping Challenge:

Flipping Pancakes is an important part of the pancake cooking process. Today we are challenging you to investigate the following question:

‘What material is best for flipping?’

Here is what you need to do:

-Ask to borrow a frying pan from your kitchen.

-Pick a material (cardboard for example).

-Cut out a pancake sized circle from your material.

-Test how easy it is to flip. How will you measure this? Perhaps you might like to see how many successful flips you can do with it in 30 seconds.

-Record your results.

-Repeat your investigation with a range of different materials.

When you have finished your investigation, email us and tell us what you found out.

I  love Blossom's creativity and her set of instructions.  I can see how hard she has worked and how fun she has had!  Thank you also for sending in your poetry analysis from yesterday's lesson on The Cuckoo.

Well done Isabel.  I love your plastic cup Goblin and the set of accompanying instructions.  It is so good to see your response to the poetry lesson yesterday.

I think the technical gremlins have a thing about Thursday!  I have re-uploaded the attachments for today's work.

Here is your learning for Thursday 11th February 2021

Reminder:  Your task after the live lesson is to create one sentence to summarise each verse of The Cuckoo.  Your extra challenge is to summarise the WHOLE poem in one sentence!
