Rosie the Dairy Cow

Milk Production

Rosie is a cow and she eats grass. After that the farmer milks the cow. The milk goes into the vat and into the truck. The truck with the milk in it goes to the factory to test the milk if it's good. Then the milk goes to the shops so people can buy it to drink and to make some ice cream. Milk is healthy. By Hilary

Making Play Dough to Learn Fractions

Making Playdough from Team 3 PES on Vimeo.

Each child in Class 15 made play dough, they chose which colour they wanted, and we coloured the play dough with brightly coloured paint. We then made pizza, sharing among 2 friends by cutting it in half, then 4 friends by cutting it in quarters. Mrs Trimble ate 3 pieces, and they told her she ate 3/4 of the pizza. We made 5 buns and shared them among 4 friends. We found out that each friend got 1 1/4 buns each.
