In phonics this week we have been learning the sounds d, g, o and c.

Who can tell me some 3 letter words starting with those letters? Can anyone show me how to write them? You can bring me in some of your work or upload it onto our blog.

Over the past few days we have made cakes in a mug to look at how tall they grow when they cook. We have then put them in our cafe for customers to enjoy.

Here is the recipe below for you to try at home.

Chocolate cake in a mug

 

4 tbsp self-raising flour
4 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp cocoa
1 egg
3 tbsp milk
3 tbsp oil
3 tbsp chocolate chips (optional)
A small splash of vanilla extract

 

Method

Add the dry ingredients to a large mug and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.

Pour in the milk and oil and mix well. Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.

Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts (high). The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed! Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.

Then enjoy!

 

Let us know how you get on.

This week Sunflower class has opened their own café. It is open from 9:30am until 3pm and serves tea, coffee, cake and freshly made sandwiches.

We have also designed menus for our café. Have a look at some of the examples below:

 

Have you been to a café before? Do we need anything else in our café?
