A Moon Cake Baker

11/09/2008 (Thursday)

a)Decorating Moon cake box
* The kids learnt to make the soft wire flowers. They used the pencils to twine the wire and then tied knots before opening the petals.
* Next, they chose their favourite colouring sheets which were related to Chang Er’s story. Then, they cut and pasted to their plain boxes.

b)Making Snow skin Moon Cakes.
* Together with the other 5-year-old class, we made mooncake.
* Teacher Huang hosted while the teachers assisted her.
* Ingredients: Red Bean Paste or Tao Yong paste, icing and some cake powder.
* Mixed the icing, powder and water. Until it becomes a big dough.
* The kids queued up to take some and measured for 40gram. They learnt to read the
weighing scale.
* Then, they chose either paste to measure for 50gram.
* Then flattened the dough as to wrap the paste. Then, they queued up to put into the mould.
* Next, they searched for their plastic bag with their name on it. These were then put into the
refrigerator to be chilled.
* They were excited that they would put their self-made Moon Cake into their handmade box.
