Proofing is a technique used to make sure that the yeast that you are using will make the dough rise. Yeast is a type of bacteria that when mixed with lukewarm water, it produces tiny bubbles of gas (i think carbon dioxide) which makes the bread or scones (or whatever you are making) come out of the oven light and airy instead of dense and rock-hard.

What needs kneaded before it can prove itself?
Bread. In making traditional bread, the flour and water and yeast are combined into a dough that requires mixing by pushing and squeezing the dough in a process called kneading. When the dough is finished mixing, it needs to proof. (The term is proof, not prove.) Proofing is a period where the dough is allowed to sit until the agent that causes it to rise begins to work and the dough enlarges due to gas bubbles inside. The proofing stage demonstrates that the dough is active and it is then fashioned into the loaf shape as desired to complete rising before baking.
