This week in reading we read about how different types of ovens bake and cook the food that we eat. We read a piece of technical reading about how to make bread. The text gave us steps on making two different types of bread, golden discs and white bread. After dividing into four groups, two of us made the dough for the golden discs and the other two made dough for the white bread. Mrs. Marshall and Mr. Boyer then took our dough creations home that night and baked it. The next day, we got to sample our bread and make some comparisons between the two kinds.
We made many observations that included the shape, size, texture, smell, and most importantly, the taste. Almost all of us liked the fluffy white bread the best as it was sweet and soft. Only Zane liked the Golden Discs, they were small and very hard on the outside. And some of us thought that they smelled like chicken! Really?We learned that we have to read directions very carefully so that we don't make the dough too runny and impossible to use.
