A few weeks ago we investigated how yeast makes bread rise by putting sugar, yeast and hot water into a lemonade bottle. We put a balloon over the top and watched it blow up with carbon dioxide! It was amazing to see. We then decided that it would be great to make bread. Today we mixed all of the dry ingredients and added warm water. We spent some time kneading the dough, shaping it and then waiting for it to prove. This is the finished product which we cannot wait to take home and enjoy! Next week we are looking forward to baking cakes. *Elsie, Emma and Freddie said* *Today in Science we made bread to show how the three states of matter are involved in the cooking process. When the bread is in the oven the yeast makes it rise. We had to knead the dough for 10 minutes and the we proved it for 1 hour. Today was amazing!* [Science](https://bridge.kent.sch.uk/blog/tag/science) [ Ho, Ho, Ho!](https://bridge.kent.sch.uk/blog/2019-12-02-16-15-56-ho-ho-ho) [Super Mathematicians! ](https://bridge.kent.sch.uk/blog/2019-12-04-17-21-44-super-mathematicians) ### Comments ### Leave a Comment ![Bridge & Patrixbourne CEP School](https://files.schudio.com/bridge-patrixbourne-cep-school-2/images/logo/Untitled_design_(13).png) #### Bridge & Patrixbourne CEP School Conyngham Lane Canterbury Kent CT4 5JX 01227 830276 #### Quick Links - [Accelerated Reader](https://login.renaissance.com/12d2c70d-6700-47cc-8697-963c18493e4b/student?state=15f6cdf1-f2d2-403e-9e79-11dbb19009d1) - [BromCom ](https://cloudmis.bromcom.com/Nucleus/Framework/Login.aspx) - [Bromcom Help Centre](https://www.docs.bromcom.com) - [BromCom Training Portal](https://bridgeandpatrixbourne.bromcom.efrontlearning.com/) #### Useful Links - [Admission](https://bridge.kent.sch.uk/key-information/admissions) - [Contact Us](https://bridge.kent.sch.uk/contact) - [Inclusion & SEN](https://bridge.kent.sch.uk/key-information/inclusion-sen) - [PTFA](https://bridge.kent.sch.uk/parents/ptfa) - [Safeguarding](https://bridge.kent.sch.uk/safeguarding/the-safeguarding-welfare-team) - [Term Dates](https://bridge.kent.sch.uk/key-information/term-dates) #### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/bridge.patrixbourne.school) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/bridge.patrixbourne.school/) © Copyright 2025–2026 Bridge & Patrixbourne CEP School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://bridge.kent.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
