Today we have been learning about writing instructions.
We wrote instructions about what we do before we come to school.

Look at Isabel and Oscar's cool instructions. Can you spot the verbs (doing words) at the start of each instruction.

Welcome back to school

Last week was busy!!! Room 13 have been learning more about what products we get from other countries. Emma bought some Couscous that was made in Italy. We investigated couscous further and discovered that:


  • Couscous is made from Durum wheat semolina grains.

  • The North African people were believed to be the first people to make and cook it

  • It takes a long time to make by hand

  • People enjoy couscous all over the world

  • There is a special couscous festival in Sicily (ITALY)

Next Miss Brown whipped up a tasty recipe for us to try with our Room 4 buddy class. Mrs Horgan and Mrs McRae served it up for us.

We thought it was:


  • delicious

  • kind of like rice

  • soft

  • spongy

  • spicy

  • better with vegetables

  • yummy

  • great

  • nice
