P6 had a fun Pancake day! We got to make lovely pancakes and put amazing toppings on them!
Everyone brought in an apron to protect their clothes. We then sorted out our equipment and ingredients. We needed self-raising flour, eggs, milk, sugar, butter and syrup. To make our pancakes we used a whisk, a bowl, a sieve, a frying pan, scales, a measuring jug, a mixing spoon and a hot plate.
Each table took turns to make their own pancake batter and pancakes. Everyone had a go at doing something. Some people used the scales to measure the flour and the sugar. To day people in the class got to crack an egg for the first time except Alec as he has done it loads of times. Others used the jug to measure the milk.
Mr Dillon poured the mixture into the hot frying pan to cook our pancakes. We knew to flip the pancake when we saw bubbles. Some people had a go at flipping pancakes.
Everyone got at least two pancakes and were allowed to choose lots of different toppings.
Once we had our pancakes we had to work in our booklets writing about how we made our pancakes and the different methods we used.
The day was great fun. Rebecca really enjoyed making the pancakes and eating them! Alec really enjoyed flipping the pancakes and eating them.
