Serc: Chemical Reactions and Pancakes

In this lesson, students will hear a story about the ingredients that go into pancakes called, "Pancakes, Pancakes!" by Eric Carle. We will then discuss preference of light and fluffy vs. flat and rubbery pancakes. Students will compare ingredients in two different pancake recipes, then taste the difference. We will talk about the chemical reaction that happened when the recipes are mixed and why there are bubbles in the pancakes.
