Year 5 started off their new English writing unit, on ‘Cloud Tea Monkeys’ by Mal Peet, with a sensory analysis involving smelling and tasting different sorts of tea.
They smelt the dry leaves before tasting the three different varieties and grades of tea; Assam, English Breakfast and Earl Grey.
The children worked as a class to fill in a sensory analysis grid, using precise adjectives to describe the look, smell, taste and feel of the assortment of teas.
