My Project

I am so thrilled to bring the gift of cooking to my young learners. My students will have many opportunities over the year to grow and explore in our classroom "kitchen.” Cooking is such a special part of our learning. While cooking.’, the students are learning so much! We will be learning about different cultures with our cooking experiences. We will also be learning life skills such as cooperation, sharing, and teamwork. These materials will provide us with numerous opportunities to learn from and have fun with. Thank you for any support you can give to our students!
