My Project

Our grades 3 through 8, Autistic Support students have the opportunity to use the kitchen area in our school to learn life skills and practice social skills. Our students will be able to locate ingredients, follow recipe directions, measure liquid and dry ingredients, and mix and create a final product to enjoy with friends.

With your help, our students will be able to learn life skills they'll use forever in their daily lives and continue to develop important social skills.

They'll practice following recipes, learn how to clean up and store food safely, and enjoy eating their creation with friends! They will be able to take their recipes home to practice with their families and friends outside of school.

These students will hopefully gain a sense of self worth being able to create something for themselves. These students deserve to be proud of their work; these basic pantry items will get them started making food they love and sharing with friends and staff in our school building.
