Yeast Mania
This week as part of our science topic on Micro-organisms we have been carrying out investigations involving yeast. We’ve had lots of fun!!!
The expanding balloons proved that yeast gives off a gas when mixed with warm water and sugar.
Today we made bread - our small buns grew in size and tasted delicious. Well done and thank you to Mrs Roberts and Mrs Smith (one of our mums) for working with the children. Also thanks to Mrs Ocego for her help and advice - her suggested lemon icing was delicious. I enjoyed licking the bowl … only joking some of the class beat me to it!!!
Next task is to watch food going mouldy and decaying - all good stuff!!! I hope some of the children will be able to write some good comments on our activities this week - I feel Rory Award nominations could be available.
We enjoyed doing it and the bread was yummy
