My Project

Students will be able to use different kitchen utensils and have knowledge to use the proper tool for preparing their own food.

My students have been impacted by COVID-19 socially, academically, and functionally.

Students need the proper supplies, resources, and tools to allow them to sufficiently learn and retain their kitchen skills. This would include slicing food items, preparing their meal, grocery shopping for the meal, and learning how to work different kitchen equipment/tool. With the practice and support of adults helping students preparing and cooking food, students will be able to have the proper access to engage and perform specific food-related tasks.
