Making Scones

During ELI lessons the students wrote recipes for scones, discussed the ingredients as well as the utensils (things we needed to make them).

Then the fun started and the students followed their own recipes and and made delicious scones.

We ate them with butter, jam and cream - mmmmmmm

Here is the recipe so you can make at home... (picture above)
