When measuring oil and adding to dry ingredients, explain the procedure for how and where this is done.
You should measure the oil in a liquid measuring cup at eye level. Do not measure over the dry ingredients because if you spilled extra in the mixing bowl it would be impossible to get the extra oil back out of the mixing bowl.
