Festive pie ‘fun’

Year 6 was awash with pastry-based, circular items as we prepared our ‘actual pie’ charts. Admittedly, the definition of ‘pie’ was slightly stretched but it was great to see the class trying hard to place protractors on top of pork pies, chicken and leek pies, lemon pies, tarte tatin and chocolate fudge ‘pies’. We had done a survey of people’s top three favourite items from Christmas dinner ( I mean - obviously it has to be pigs in blankets, crunchy roast potatoes and gravy, doesn’t it?) and were then trying to represent our data on a real pie! ( OK - look, it seemed like a good idea at the time!)

It is always interesting seeing who can do what -cutlery skills perhaps needs to be added to the Y6 curriculum!

I hope everyone has a lovely Christmas, manages to shake off these horrible colds, and here’s to a Happy New Year for us all! Xx
