- Learned about the process of combining ingredients to make a batter
- Explored the concept of chemical reactions as the batter transformed into bread during baking
- Observed how heat causes physical changes in the ingredients
- Understood that baking is a form of cooking that requires specific temperature and time
- Learned about food safety and hygiene by washing hands before and after handling ingredients
Continued development:
Encourage the child to explore other baking recipes and observe the scientific concepts involved, such as how ingredients change form when exposed to heat, the role of baking soda/powder as leavening agents, and the importance of precise measurements. Additionally, introduce the concept of nutrition by discussing the benefits of using wholesome ingredients like bananas in baked goods.
