My Project

These additional supplies can greatly enhance my students’ learning experience by providing tools that allow them to personalize their culinary lab experiences, as well as assisting with keeping the classroom and lab environment clean. The chef hats would help provide my students with appropriate culinary gear, which can optimize the feeling being an actual chef.

Majority of my students come from a underserved community.

This can increase their understanding of professionalism and responsibility. Additionally, the fabric markers will allow them to personalize their aprons and chef hats and demonstrate their uniqueness and understanding in creative ways. I believe that the additional supplies may foster curiosity and motivation to learn beyond the standard curriculum. In short, having these additional supplies may be a game changer in creating a cleaner, more engaging, and personalized environment for my students.
