Objectives

 Review the techniques for working with children in the preparation and cooking of vegetables and fruit from the garden.

 Prepare, eat and clean up a healthy delicious snack or salad made from fresh garden produce.

Empower the Students

A few knife skills, so they feel like a chef. If you are letting students use knives, give them instructions on how to use them safely and expectations of how they are to act when holding and using knives.

Make sure students are aware of where they are standing and what they are doing if they are using or even close to these tools

Cooking with Groups

When groups are preparing separate parts of a recipe the students can see how one aspect can contribute to the bigger whole.

Before we eat, we always clean up each mini-kitchen and set a table so we can sit down to serve everyone family style.
