Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

In our bustling middle school cooking classroom, we are seeking to enhance the learning experience by introducing an essential tool: an ice machine. Our students, residing in the heart of the desert, face unique challenges in their culinary exploration due to limited access to cold ingredients. With your generous support, we aim to provide them with the means to overcome these obstacles and unlock their full culinary potential.

The ice machine will allow students to experiment with crafting refreshing beverages, such as fruit-infused water, lemonade, and iced tea.

By having access to ice, they can explore various flavor combinations and learn about the importance of hydration, especially in a desert climate.

Chilled Treats: In the scorching desert heat, nothing beats a cool treat. With the ice machine, students can create an array of frozen desserts, including homemade ice cream, sorbet, and popsicles. These hands-on activities not only teach culinary skills but also introduce concepts of food science and chemistry.

Food Safety: Proper food handling and storage are paramount in any kitchen, especially in a desert environment where temperatures can soar. The ice machine will enable students to safely store perishable ingredients and keep prepared dishes at the optimal temperature, ensuring food safety practices are ingrained from an early age.

Culinary Innovation: The addition of an ice machine will inspire creativity in our students' culinary endeavors. They can experiment with techniques such as ice sculpting and ice cream cake decoration broadening their culinary repertoire and fostering a spirit of innovation.
