Day 26

Task: Write a Poem about Summer
What I Did:
I went outside to experience the summer senses and write a poem.

 I sat down,

and started to write.

The poem went like this:


"I can feel the summer breeze on me,

I can feel the rocks beneath my feet,

I can feel, feel, feel.



I can hear the birds up there, somewhere,

I can hear the wind, the leaves just there,

I can hear, hear, hear.



I can smell the grass, I smell the trees,

I can smell the cleaver, I smell the weeds,

I can smell, smell, smell.



I can eat the wild strawberries,

I can eat honey from the bees,

I can eat, eat, eat.



I can see the green all around me,

I can see the clouds – that’s what I see.

I can see, see, see."

Success!

Day 25

Task: Make Fat Cakes for the Birds
What I Did:
We found out the the fat cakes that we bought had animal fat in so we decided not to buy any after the birds had finished them.  Instead we made a vegetarian version.


We used oatmeal, plain flour, 
coconut oil, peanut butter, sunflower seeds,
raisins, sugar, cornflower and pumpkin seeds
(optional).
 
We put coconut oil, peanut butter and sugar in a bowl,


We melted them together in a "bain marie"
 
We mixed the other ingredients together,

Then we put the wet ingredients in and
mixed,
 
Then we put it in a tray and cooled it in the fridge.
 
When it was cool we cut it into squares,
 
and put it in the bird feeder.

Day 25:
Success!

Day 24

Task: Make a Green Man Mask
What I Did:
I learned about the green man in English folklore. He is a person made out of greenery who represents spring and summer.  My friends and I made "Green Man" masks using plain white masks which we painted and leaves from the garden.

 This is me wearing the mask before I painted it,

I painted it green,


I cut leaves out,


I tried it on,


And so did Noah!
