Hello children,

I hope you are all keeping well and enjoying your home learning. I would like to share a new art challenge with you all. This week, I would like us to focus on Shadow Art. Using a torch or a living room light, lamp or even a torch from a mobile phone. Find a dark place in your home, choose your favourite object. Place it on some plain A4 paper and have a go at creating your very own pieces of art by tracing around the shadow.

Please see the pictures below for some ideas.

Have fun and enjoy 🙂 Mrs Jukes

Bake With Miss J – Week 2! This week I have been making Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins… they went down a treat with Mr Parker and Mrs Jukes! A short video has been made to show each stage…

PLEASE ENSURE YOU HAVE AN ADULT SUPPORT/HELP WITH USING THE OVEN, MICROWAVE OR WHEN HANDLING HOT TRAYS.

100g softened butter (I use stork or the supermarket equivalent)

2 medium eggs

225g self-raising flour

3 tablespoons milk

100g chocolate chips

175g unrefined golden caster sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

2 bananas (mashed)

 Set your oven to 180 degrees, 160 degree (Fan) or gas mark 4.

1. Place 12 muffin or big cupcake cases into a tray and set aside.
2. Mix together the butter and sugar until smooth.
3. Add in 2 eggs and mix briefly.
4. Add in the self-raising flour, baking powder and mashed bananas. Mix together until smooth.
5. Add in the milk and chocolate chips and mix for a final time.
6. Add the mixture into each cupcake case. For this stage I use an ice-cream scoop and fill it twice. You could put two heaped spoons into each case.
7. Place the tray into the oven and bake for 25 minutes.
8. After 25 minutes, place a skewer or small knife into the middle of a muffin. If the skewer or knife is clean (no runny mixture), your muffins are ready. If not, bake for 2 more minutes at a time until they are full cooked.
9. Cool down in the tray for at least 15-20 minutes. Then transfer onto a cooling rack.

If you decide to make these muffins, please do send an e-mail to Eloise.jones@taw.org.uk – I would love to see how they turn out!

Stay tuned for another recipe next Friday!
