My Students

Students in my classroom are bright and shiny 1st graders ready to take on the world! Each student has a unique personality and together they create a cohesive, family-like group.

The students in this classroom are especially notable because they are entering their 1st grade year in the midst of a worldwide shift.

They have spent their entire kindergarten careers at home, learning via Zoom. For many of them, this will be their first time in a classroom!

My Project

It is my hope to have a weekly cooking class in the 1st grade classroom. We will wash, chop and prepare vegetables for salad in the warm months, and soup in the cooler months.

By working together to create a delicious and nutritious meal, students will build strong bonds with their classmates and with healthy foods!

The requested materials will be used each week to prepare, serve and enjoy meals throughout the school year. I have chosen tools that will safely teach knife skills and build students' confidence in the kitchen!
