My Project

Students will use the cooking tools to help them prepare ingredients, cook safely, and learn new kitchen skills while making their favorite recipes. Using these specific items like measuring cups and spoons and hand mixer will help students learn proper cooking techniques, understand measurements, and safety in the kitchen.

The goal for this club are to help students learn how to cook safely, develop new skills, work together as a team, and have fun experimenting with different recipes.

Our cooking club is important to our students because it helps them develop important life skills, encourages creativity, and promotes healthy eating habits while having fun.
