Cooking in the classroom provides important lessons in math, literacy, science, art, and more. Students will have the opportunity to follow recipes, cook food, and connect these experiences to other classroom lessons. For example, measuring ingredients will allow our students to practice math and reading. Basic cooking techniques also provide opportunity for our young learners to continue developing fine and gross motor skills. Additionally, children will increase social and communication skills and will benefit from working in a group setting.
Culinary experiences in the classroom also expose children to new foods and cultures, while providing confidence and achievement in creating their very own dishes.
Additionally, we will teach our students about nutritious foods to promote healthy choices. This creative curriculum will ultimately nourish my students’ minds and bodies.
