ANZAC Biscuits

Today, the Year 4 students made ANZAC Biscuits with a focus on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths). The students worked in groups to halve the original recipe below, and add something to their biscuit mixture to make it different e.g. change the colour or shape of the biscuits.
