BONEY BAKING!

We have been learning about the human body this term.
This week we have been learning about our BONES!
We had fun baking our own bones using salt dough.
It was awesome to  have parents in the classroom to help! 
Thanks Parents and helpers!
You could try this at home.......
Here is an easy recipe.

Ingredients:
4 Cups of Flour
1 Cup of Salt
1 1/2 Cups of hot tap water
2 teaspoons of vegetable oil (optional)
Instructions:
Combine the flour and salt in a mixing bowl,
Gradually add the water until the dough becomes elastic
Add the vegetable oil
If your dough is too sticky, add more flour.... too crumbly? add more water.
Once you've got the consistency that you can work with, bring on the fun!
Add some food colouring if you want fun colours!
Either air dry or bake at 180 degrees until hard or lightly brown. (Keep an eye on them)
You can paint your creations afterwards, then seal them with a clear varnish!
