How to make a egg bounce

HOW TO MAKE AN EGG BOUNCE

Mrs Bennett put a link to Nano Girl on our slides.  Being at home can be hard to learn so I decided to see if their was something fun to do.

I found an experiment about and egg.  Usually if you drop an egg it goes SPLAT, but this experiment made the egg bounce.  I was keen to try.

First I had to find a jar,with a lid, white vinegar and an egg.  I placed the egg in the jar and covered it with vinegar,  then placed the lid on.  Now the waiting began.  I had to leave it for four days.  After 4 days I opened the lid and got the egg out, it felt soft and squishy.  I was washed it under the tap to clean off the shell and dried it in a paper towel.  Now will it work I dropped it on the bench and to my surprise it bounced!!!

Lock Down Tech

Today I made Double Chocolate Chip Muffins for my lock down Tech. 

I used Mrs Bennett's recipe below and then added 1/2 cocoa and also 1/2 cup of chocolate chips.  Dad doesn't like fruit and I wanted him to try them.

Ingredients

Dry - 2 cups S.R flour of 2 cups plain flour + 4 tsp baking powder.

1 cup sugar

½ tsp salt

Wet - 100 g melted butter

 1 large or 2 small eggs

1 cup milk

1 tsp vanilla essence

Method

1. Preheat oven to 200degrees celsius. (I use fan bake)

2. Grease 12 x muffin tims well with oil or spray or line with cases.

3. Sift dry ingredients into a large bowl.

4. In a small pot, melt the butter over a gentle heat.  Add milk, egg and vanilla and fruit of choice, and stir well to combine.

5. Add the wet to the dry ingredients and fold with a fork to dampen the flour and combine...do not over mix at this point.

6. Spoon evenly into muffin tins.  Depending on the flavour sometimes I sprinkle over choc chips, coconut, cinnamon sugar etc.

7. Bake for 10-12 minutes until muffins are cooked in the centre and spring back lightly when pushed.

We got the idea from our weekly river poem.
