Cookbooks for Home Econ - Part 2

Help me give my students cookbooks to expand onto the new empty shelves of our classroom library

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Nelen's classroom raised $179

This project is fully funded

My Project

Students in Creative Cooking, Creative Baking, and Life Skills Home Economic with special needs students have many opportunities to browse cookbooks.

These students love seeing the pictures of the good food from these quality cookbooks.

Some students will request to look through a cookbook in our downtime in the last minutes of class. Love it! They are also encouraged to try a recipe at home. I like offering a variety of cookbooks to students from Pennsylvania cooking, wild game cooking, baking, and just overall tasty recipes. Cookbooks are the number one greatest item from DonorsChoose for my classroom.
