J for Jelly

We have been learning about the letter Jj.
We made some jelly and tried to see if we could make it jiggle.
J is for jiggling jelly.

To make our jelly we used a packet of strawberry jelly and boiling water. We put some grapes in our jelly too.

We needed bowls to mix the jelly, a spoon to stir the jelly, a kettle to boil the water and a plate to sit it on when it was set.
We used the fridge to help the jelly cool down so it would set in time for us to jiggle it and eat it before hometime.

When we put the grapes in we put in 2 grapes for everyone so we could do fair shares.
We put half the grapes in at the beginning.
They sank to the bottom.
We put the other half in after it had been in the fridge and was starting to set.
They floated near the top.

We all had some to eat before we went home.

The children said "it's fun', "it's yum", "it's slippery", 'it's pretty', "it's jiggly'.

We all liked making jiggly jelly and we all liked eating it.
