Making bread!
There has been and air of excitement across Year 5 all week because the children have been baking their own bread. After evaluating a range of commercially available breads, the children chose their own ingredients to customise their own recipe. They then learnt how to make a basic bread recipe, how to incorporate the ingredients to form a dough, what “proving” and “knocking back” means in the world of bread making and then they baked! Once our bread was ready we enjoyed eating and evaluating the fruits of our labour.
