COOKING WITH MATHS

 

What did you learn about maths and what principle did you  investigate? 

 

 

 Measurement-using measuring cups to measure ingredients.

Division/fractions- Dividing up the jam roll to line the bowl finished pudding into serves.

Addition- adding up the cost.

Division-working out the actual cost of our recipe.

COOKING WITH SCIENCE

 

What did you learn about maths and what principle did you  investigate? 

 When you whip the cream it adds air to make the cream rise.

Freezing and thawing- We had to thaw the raspberries and we had to freeze the whole pudding to make it set quicker. We tried to cut it but it was too hard so we had to thaw it more until recess.

THINKING CURRICULUM

What did our group find out about the Thinking Curriculum especially Habits of Mind?

ONLINE TEAM WORK

What did we learn about computer technology, group work, working online with partner

It's very Important to copy a recipe properly. Our group left a word off the shopping list and almost changed the whole thing. we bought jam instead of jam roll cake.

 

 

 

 

First time we were online to Boronia West but they couldn't see us because we did not have the camera  but we could see them so they felt embarrassed. They asked  all sorts of questions like what did you do on the weekend?, What's your name?, How old are you?, what are you cooking?, what  do you like to cook?, what's your favourite food and drink?.

A few days later we installed a camera so they could see us. In the end we got everything going.
