Writing about unleavened bread

Yesterday as part of our Inquiry about "Where Our Food Comes From" the children got the opportunity to make some unleavened bread.

We were very lucky to have the lovely Regina come and help us.  She showed us some barley straight from her garden and other grains that she uses.  She also showed us how to grind grains into flour.  Regina has a manual grinder and an electric one too - the electric one was so much faster!  

We used the wholemeal flour that we ground in Regina's grinder to make our bread.  

Our bread was ready just in time for us to try it at the very end of the day.

A HUGE "Thank you" to Regina for helping out.  You were amazing.

Today we tried some more that Mrs Waldron made last night.  Because it had cooled it was harder and crunchier.  We talked about yesterdays process of making the bread and described using our senses what the warm and cool bread were like.

Here are some samples of our unfinished writing so far...
