My Project

Learning how to cook simple meals is a life skill all students should know how to do. Knowing how to measure out the right amount of ingredients is very important. If you do not have the right amount then the food will not turn out right.

Also, learning how to set a table and clean up after cooking is very important as well.

Having these materials in my class will teach my students how to make simple means, setting the table, and cleaning up after themselves. I can not wait to teach them how to cook!
