Lovely sweetcorn

School started at 10.30 as Year 6 were taking exams. We looked at and discussed some shape poems and then brainstormed some words for our Firework poem tomorrow. We came up with some very interesting verbs: screaching, screaming, zig zagging, exploding whizzing and many more. In the afternoon Mr Greenwood got out a pair of tights and put inside it a potato, beans, water, banana and sweetcorn. This was to teach us about digestion. The digestive tube in our body can be 8m long. The food is broken down with the good bits going into the blood to bring energy to all parts of our body. The sweetcorn came out without changing. sweetcorn is good for us because it helps push food through our body.
