Welcome to quarter two exploratory classes at RMS!
For the first 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. Week of Nov. 21-25: SAFETY, SANITATION and START-UP This week we reviewed safety, sanitation and start-up. We watched a series of short videos to review main kitchen safety and sanitation topics. We also reviewed measuring and kitchen tools through the completion of a Food Studies Olympics booklet. Our first lab will be next week. Students with allergies/dietary restrictions and new students to RMS must return the signed welcome letter before our first cooking lab. Failure to return this form will result in alternate ingredients not being available. Welcome to quarter two exploratory classes at RMS!

This is the last week of quarter 1 exploratory classes! We finished our final lab last week and for the final class students will complete a self-assessment before starting kitchen cleaning and organizing.
I want to thank you all for a great quarter and I hope you continue to grow your skills and passion for cooking! Don't forget to sign-up for Food Studies at RSS in grade 9. No school Friday for Remembrance Day.
This is our last full week of classes for quarter one exploratory. After the chicken lab safety review lesson on Friday, we are putting our safety skills to the test preparing chicken stir fry. This is a two-day lab with the first class being veggie prep and sauce making, followed by a class of cooking all of the components. Each kitchen group will be making either teriyaki or sweet and sour sauce from scratch. |
