The trees were so big the girls decided they needed some hug just like us. 15 minutes

We decided to use our Super Six reading strategy of Visualisation to make clear the steps in building our shelters. Using the graphic organiser as a guide we thought about what belonged on each step, we wrote simple instructions in note form and added pictures to help us along the way. ⛺️

Before our writing session on Wednesday we reviewed our photographs from our Discovery walk 📸. By reflecting on the pictures we took along the way we were able to arrange our journey map into an order. This will help us with our writing session to create detailed forest settings 🌳

Litter pick amazed at house much litter we found it must of been between 20-30 kilos at least no bats in hibernation so we also litter picked in the caves we saw moths and other bugs…we look forward to our bat walk at night soon. 1hour 45

To start today we had a discussion about the uses of fire, particularly in the Stone Age to link to our novel Stig of the Dump. After discussing how fire is made and ways to keep ourselves safe around fire we began by digging out a space to make a fire.

Using six simple ingredients we made some camp fire bread dough. We all had a turn at measuring, pouring, stirring and mixing to make our basic bread doughs ready to baked on our campfire. 🏕

Once we had a useable dough we shaped them into long thin sausages and wrapped them around some willow branches. Using the long branches to reach the fire we baked our bread fresh in the flame. Fresh Stone Age bread! 🥖

Once our dough had cooked in our fire we were able to taste what we had made! Some of us enjoyed the bread on its own and some added some toppings such as honey 🍯
