Evil Pea!

What a week! Definitely one of our favourites so far! Evil Pea chaos has descended amongst the classroom. We have been blown away by the childrens’ engagement, enthusiasm and imagination for all things Evil Pea! 

So our attempts haven’t worked so far, and the evil pea is still on the loose! One of the children in RZ brought in some jelly, but the Evil Pea mischievously stole it! We therefore decided we need to make a LOT of jelly so that the Evil Pea gets trapped in it! This linked perfectly to our melting experiment as we needed to melt the jelly cubes using hot water. Mrs Davy mixed it with boiling water, and when cool enough, we had a turn to safely mix it too.

We’ve been working really hard in class to find the Evil Pea, but we need more help! We worked together to write a wanted poster, thinking of adventurous vocabulary and working as a team to hear initial sounds and segment the sounds we can hear to write the words.

Evil Pea has trapped the veggies in ice!!! How can we free them? We explored different ways of releasing the vegetables. Lots of children wanted to smash the ice, but this may hurt the veggies or other children in class! We needed to melt the ice. We had different materials, our hands and even a hairdryer! We discovered that the quickest way to melt the ice was the hairdryer, and that to make things melt, we need to make them super hot!

Let’s rescue the vegetables!

Using vegetables as paint brushes!

We need to have super concentration like Supertato to say the number in between two numbers.

Evil Pea has stolen numbers from the number lines! Can we put them back in the correct order?
