Food scientists in Year 6!

As part of British Science Week 2017, Year 6 have been wondering... which ingredients make the best bread, and why?

First, we had to decide how we would judge the bread. We decided on three features: appearance, taste and texture.

After analysing the original recipe, we chose to have one group follow it precisely as a control to compare our findings against it. The others all chose to omit one ingredient or add more of it. For example, one group left out the salt; another group used 3 times as much margarine!

We had a great time - come along to our Science Fair presentations to find out the results of our study!
