We found out that a procedure is made up of 3 parts:
A Goal/Title
Materials/Ingredients
Method/Steps.
What better way to start our procedures than to make something delicious! On Wednesday we made delicious Jam sandwiches (Miss Prowse's version of cooking). The children loved making the sandwiches and following a simple procedure to get this done. We split up into groups and made our sandwiches with the help of Mrs. Rann and Kate Maslin (thank you ladies!). There were many sticky fingers but I loved seeing the children talk about the procedure and getting the steps back into order in their English books after they made them!
On Thursday we 'cooked' again with the help of Mrs. Rann and Ms. Kent. We followed the more complex procedure of how to make play dough. The children loved mixing the ingredients together and of course adding to food colouring! We even got to add some smells to our play dough (coconut, vanilla, chocolate).
The children got to take home their play dough today and were extremely proud of making it :)
We had a lot of fun learning about procedures!
