The Great British Bake off here we come!

This week we have begun our new topic all about "Where in the UK do these traditional treats come from?"  Following on from our topic about the 4 countries of the UK, we  begun baking a traditional recipe from each of the 4  nations.  Earlier in the week after learning about what a recipe is and how it has a set of instructions that must be followed in order, we then enjoyed baking English Scones.  The children enjoyed weighing, mixing, rolling and cutting before finally eating! Towards the end of the week we then learnt how to bake Scottish shortbread but this time the children took responsibility for getting all of the equipment they needed and the ingredients together before baking.  What great team work the children showed and what tasty shortbread they made.  Well done Butterflies.  What super cooks you all are and maybe one day we will see you on the Great British Bake off!
