‘Great British Bake Off '

There is a joy in learning to cook especially with a class of children. The food smells enrich the class environment and create a sense of anticipation before eating the final product. Popular cooking shows such as 'The Great British Bake Off' have raised awareness and provided an opportunity for discussing how cooking is viewed. Although practical in nature, apps and activities can support children in both the planning and the cooking of their final tasty creations. Cooking programmes often break down the various and multiple stages of following a recipe. Book Creator is used to create a visual and multimedia version of how to cook the cake. A Comic Life is used as a way of recording how to cook a recipe. A camera tool and the Explain Everything app are used to produce a video help-file to teach the children cooking skills.
