Making bread

This week we have made bread. We used flour, butter, salt and sugar. We also used yeast to make it grow bigger. We kneaded the dough and left it to prove. Then we baked it in the oven.

WHAT THE CHILDREN SAID:

"I didn't know that you use sugar and salt to make bread." Ashani

"I learnt that you use yeast to make the dough grow bigger". Ella R

" I didn't know that bread needs to be baked". Tom

" I learnt that flour is made from wheat". Kelly

" I learnt that bread has to go on a truck from the factory to the shop". Toby

We read different recipe books to find the contents page, list of ingredients and how to make different foods.

We also put the sequence of steps for wheat going from the farm to the table by putting pictures in a flowchart.

..........and had lots of fun dancing during our Gross Motor lesson on Friday! (watch the video below).
