The children celebrated Shrove Tuesday by making pancakes. 

They were able to use real cooking equipment for a purpose. 

They started by reading the story Mr Wolf's pancakes.

Then they were able to follow instructions to mix the batter to make their own pancakes. 

The children mixed the ingredients and then got it ready to make the pancakes.

They took part in a risk assessment of how to be careful of the hot cooking equipment.

They decided what needed to be put in place to manage the risk.

The children poured and scooped the mixture onto the hot plate.  

They watched carefully as the pancakes began to cook and changed in texture. 

The children practised flipping the pancakes.

They persisted with trial and error. 

It was lots of fun and even more fun eating them at the end!
