Today we looked at how yeast makes our dough change. We talked about the gas that made our dough get bigger. At discovery time we cooked our individual pizzas. Yum!

Ice
Today we had 2 ice competitions. The first was who could melt their ice first and who could make their ice last the longest. Then we melted the big chunks of ice in the electric frying pan. We found out the ice was 0 degrees celsius, it started melting straight away, water vapour started to come up in the frypan at 60 degrees Celsius and it boiled at 100 degrees Celsius. All the ice took till morning tea time to evaporate away.
Zip bag icecream
Today we made icecream. We used 1 cup of milk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla, 3 drops of food colouring and 2 tablespoons of sugar. We put I all into a small plastic bag. Then in a big plastic bag we put 1/4 cup of salt and 3 cups of ice. We then carefully placed the small zip bag into the big one and zipped it up. Remember to squeeze out as much air as you can out of the bags. We also tried double bagging the small bag as we didn't want any salt to get into our icecream. You need to then massage the milk until it becomes solid icecream.
We noticed that the icecream tasted like vanilla icecream but it melted really fast.

Tidy Cloakbay winners?!
Miss Hardley could hear giggling from outside, then someone yelled "Miss Hardley someone forgot their bag!"
Drawing lesson with Whaea Lisa
We had a special visitor today. Aunty T' wanted a nice picture drawn of her and she had heard about our drawing skills. We all did our best to draw all of the thing we noticed.
