Year 4 have been working really hard on their Healthy Me topic and learning all about nutrition and now to have a healthy diet. In English we have read 'Goldilocks eat your greens' and decided to write our own stories following the same theme. We worked really hard to design our own characters for our stories and made sure they also learned a lesson about being healthy. We then published our books and made illustrations to go along with our stories. Lime class decided share their books with the reception children. We were able to inspire them and we got lots of lovely compliments about our original stories.
This week we ended our Healthy Me topic with a Cultural Food Day. During our topic we discovered that we all enjoyed some very different foods, some of which others of us had never heard of, or had the chance to try. We invited our adults to come into school and bring a traditional dish for us to learn about and taste. All of the children in year 4 had the chance to learn about and taste foods from Germany, Romania, Bangladesh, Nigeria, U.K., Sri Lanka and food that is eaten during the Jewish festival of Passover. Thank you so much to all the adults who joined us for this event. Our tastebuds were buzzing with the variety of foods to explore and we can't stop talking about it!
