We learnt about following a procedure to make popcorn.
Step 1: Pour the corn kernels into the cup |
Step 2: Add the kernels to the Crazy Popper |
Step 3: Turn on the Crazy Popper |
Step 4: Put the bowl under the Crazy Popper to catch the popcorn |
Step 5: Watching, waiting - we could feel the heat coming from the Crazy Popper |
Step 6: Perfectly popped popcorn!! |
Look what happens to the kernel - how does this happen? |
This is what we had to say about making popcorn.
Sometimes we forgot what we wanted to say so we had to stop and think and have another go!
Here we are enjoying our popcorn!
Yummy yummy! I love popcorn. It is incredible how that small kernel of corn can change into a big, soft, delicious snack. Did you try adding some different flavours to your popcorn?
ReplyDeleteWow Prep K!! You don't waste any time getting back to the business of Learning do you??!!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what makes the corn go "POP" ??

Oh yummy! That looks delicious. Your popcorn maker is exactly the same as ours!
ReplyDeleteDewar Preps,
ReplyDeleteWow! You have fun while you are learning! How come you didn't visit the Middles today to tell us about your learning? (and to bring some popcorn)
I'm hungry from Mrs Yore
Hello,
ReplyDeleteI loved all the information you shared about making popcorn. It amazes me that something so simple can be so much fun. The KinderKids also enjoy making popcorn. We read a legend about the little guy that lives inside the popcorn kernel and when the kernel is heated he gets so mad he explodes. And that's how popcorn is made.
We are on summer holidays but when we return to school in September, we will continue to check your blog. We love learning from others around the world.
Thank you for sharing your learning with us.

Wow Prep K, Was it easy to follow a procedure? Prep S enjoyed making the popcorn as well especially the eating part. I am sure they would make popcorn every day if they could although I think Mr Swann would have something to say about a crazy popper spending so much time in the classroom (he loves to make popcorn too!). I wonder what other procedures we could follow to make new and amazing things?
ReplyDeleteLove Prep S and Mrs Swann
Hello Mrs Molly and Will
ReplyDeleteWe think the popcorn pops because the heat makes the kernel explode!
Thank you for your popping good question.

Hello Casey, Chelsea, Jazz and Miki.
ReplyDeleteWe are very happy to meet you. Last week we were on an excursion to Geelong! We live in Blackburn South.
We have Better Buddies at St. Luke's and we play with our grade six buddies. We read stories and the grade sixes put on puppet shows for us. We eat lunch together - we love our buddies.
We will visit your blog soon.
