\"yr-2-flap-jacks<\/a>As part of our maths topic last week we had been learning to measure weight using scales, so what better way to put our skills into practice than measuring and weighing out ingredients?<\/p>\n

We started off the week using a balance, finding objects that were heavier, lighter and the same, as a given weight. We then learnt how to read the amount on different measuring scales. After measuring the weight of various items around the classroom, including our shoes, we decided we were ready for the serious stuff!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

On Wednesday afternoon we were lucky enough to have Mrs Betty come in and help us make flapjacks. In small groups we took it in turns to measure out the ingredients, mix them together and then (with adult supervision!) put them in the oven to bake. They all come out tasting delicious\u2026despite being a little crumbly. What a fun way to use our new skills!<\/p>\n

Thank you, once again, Mrs B, for being a superstar helper and jumping in at the last minute to be Chef Betty for the afternoon. We appreciate you more than you know.<\/p>\n
