Today a group of us opted in Mrs Lunn's Scone workshop.
First we put 2 Cups of self-raising flour into the bowl...
The we added 3/4 of a cup of Lemonade (not diet or the scones will taste funny)...
Then add 1/2 a cup of cream...
Stir the ingredients together and then kneed.
Put into an 18-20cm round on baking paper and cut into 8 wedges.
Bake at 220 degrees for 15-20cm
Delicious!
While we were cooking we also learnt about equivalent fractions. We don't have a measuring cup for 3/4 of a cup and so we realised that if we used the 1/4 measuring cup we would just need to fill it 3 times!
Then when it came to measuring the cream Mrs Lunn asked us how we could measure the cream without using the 1/2cup. We said we could use the 1/4 cup and fill it twice because we know that two quarters is the same as 1 half! Mrs Lunn was impressed - we know equivalent fractions! That is super big kid maths! Go us!!!
