adjective – describes the noun

Note: To improve your sentence, move the adverb of time to the

2:30-3:00pm Music
Our song for this term is taken from the musical Oliver!
In this scene Oliver is in an orphanage and about to be served dinner/gruel.
Gruel is a thin liquid food of oatmeal boiled in milk or water.
Imagine eating only that 3 times a day! No wonder Oliver and the other orphans are dreaming of other glorious foods.
Today’s goal: Use the wordbank to help you understand the lyrics.
Food Glorious Food
