Safety in the Kitchen (common safety scenarios)
Having taught Foods for almost 20 years, I often see the same kitchen safety concerns every year! Therefore, I have created individual scenarios that lead to a good class discussion or role playing (safely!), that will help students understand and learn the dangers when working with so many other students in ONE room.
This is a 2 page assignment allowing students to fill in their answers addressing the safety concern in each scenario. There are a total of 8 scenarios provided. No answer ke

Don’t Get Caught Germy Handed Lab - Germ Glo Hand Washing Lab
Washing hands is always an important skill to practice, especially now! While teaching about the impact of bacteria and viruses in our world, I like to use this lab to teach the effectiveness of hand-washing. Students are always amazed at how many “germs” are still on their hands after their first quick wash. Students also are able to see all the areas where they miss in their washing so that they can be more effective when washing their hands in the future. #Lifeisbetterwithcleanhands :)This

These mini labs were created out of the need to teach customary and metric units of capacity in an investigative setting. Each lab was assigned to half the class for the first day and then flip flopped for the second day. By using a hands-on approach, students in my class understood how much each measure actually contains. They walked away from the investigations with a mental image that made this type of learning concrete. Remember that you cannot teach size with paper and pencil! The lab uses
