# DT - Making Biscuits

  ![](https://files.schudio.com/inskip-st-peters-2/images/blog/IMG_1682.JPG)   2 February 2024   [Bryn Thornton](https://inskip.lancs.sch.uk/blog/author/bthornton)   [Middle School (MS)](https://inskip.lancs.sch.uk/blog/category/middle-school-ms)

For our DT topic, children have been tasked with designing their own biscuits and biscuit brand. This week, we made our own shortbread biscuits to put the method of making them to the test. Children followed instructions to measure out, mix and roll their own biscuits.
Baking allowed children to follow their DT, but also to use their English comprehension skills with following instructions and their maths measures skills with weighing out amounts.
Some children had to solve problems with their dough - for example some were too crumbly and some were too sticky. We needed to figure out what would fix this problem using what we had.
We had a great morning enjoying making our biscuits!
