On Monday students will participate in a dairy lesson and cheese tasting, having the opportunity to try five different types of cheese, including a goats milk cheese! We will then have a grilled cheese with a twist lab, where students will make customized grilled cheese sandwiches served with apple slices. The focus for this lab is on knife and stove safety.
BC Family Day - no school Monday.
This week students are working in groups of two or three to make granola served with yogurt. We will be focusing on kitchen safety and continuing to learn lab routines. This will be a big lab for measuring skills! This week is our first cooking lab! Students will first participate in a dishwashing relay to learn the lab routines that will become a part of every cooking lab over the next 8 weeks. We are making marshmallow treats to focus on lab routines and safety.
Recipes can be found under the "Food Studies Recipes" tab at the top of this website. Each student will take home a duotang of their class work and recipes at the end of the quarter. No school Friday, Feb. 17 ~ Pro-D day. SAFETY, SANITATION and START-UP
This week we started learning about kitchen safety and sanitation. We will be working through a 2-class presentation to touch on important kitchen safety topics to prepare us for our first cooking lab next week. Students will also complete a Unit Snoop activity to become familiar with common kitchen equipment and where the items are located in their kitchens. Welcome to quarter three exploratory classes at RMS! This week students will spend time getting to know the daily routines in the Food Studies class. We will begin navigating the enhanced safety and sanitation procedures that are an important part of our classroom learning this year. After going through the course outline, students will be given a welcome letter to share with their parent/guardian. Any new students to RMS or students with food allergies/dietary restrictions must return the signed form in order to participate in upcoming cooking labs. Reminder - Thursday and Friday are early dismissal days for parent-teacher conferences. See the RMS website for the schedule (classes end at 12pm).
