Preheat the oven to 220C/Fan 200C/Gas 7. Ask an adult to put the baking tray into the oven to heat up. Sieve the flour into the mixing bowl. Stir in the salt and baking powder with a wooden spoon. Drop the cubes of butter on top of the flour. Rub the butter into the flour with your fingertips until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs. Stir in 3 tablespoons caster sugar. Pour in the milk and use a cutlery knife to mix it into the flour and butter mixture. This will make quite a wet dough. Sprinkle flour onto a work surface and tip the dough out onto it. Sprinkle the dough and your hands with flour. Fold the dough over 2 or three times until it becomes smoother. Press it into a round about 4cm deep. Use your cutter to cut out four scones. Press the dough together again and cut out another four scones. Ask the adult to lift the hot tray out of the oven and carefully place the scones on it. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes. As the adult to take the tray out and leave it on a safe surface to cool. Now make the sandwiches. Butter six slices of bread (you can use spread instead of butter). Use the potato peeler to slice the dark-green peel off the cucumber. Throw the peel away. Then ask the adult to help you slice the cucumber as finely as you can with the sharp knife. Lay slices of cucumber on three slices of the buttered bread and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and a small amount of white pepper. Put the other pieces of bread on top of the cucumber. Ask the adult to help you cut the sand- wiches into quarters. You can leave the crusts on or cut them off.Now get ready to serve. Lay the table with a small plate for everyone, a cup and saucer, a knife and a spoon and a napkin. Pour milk into a jug and sugar into a bowl and put these in the centre on a table mat. Put jam and cream in small bowls and put these in the centre too. Put the sandwiches on one big plate and the scones on another. Put these on the table. Ask an adult to boil the kettle, Put one teabag for everyone who is going to drink tea into the teapot, plus one more. Ask the adult to pour boiling water on the tea and to carry the teapot to the table. If you have loose tea, ask the adult to follow the instructions on the packet. Make squash in a jug and put that on the table too. Now you are ready to eat. Pass around the sandwiches and then the scones, cream and jam. Tuck in and enjoy! &Write your name in the Mackintosh alphabet About this task Charles Rennie Mackintosh used a very distinctive style of lettering.
