My Project

My students are always hungry. I want to include making edible snacks in the classroom as part of our science lessons.

With a toaster oven, we can make healthy snacks as we watch simple changes in matter.

This oven and microwave will allow students to become more independent as they learn and try new food options. These items are also quite safe for little kids to use with supervision.

A toaster oven and a microwave can be excellent tools for first graders to develop their fine motor skills and expand their culinary repertoire.
