Students will expand their knowledge of the incredible world of cooking, health, and nutrition through this fun and interactive program. Our program has a presentation, food demonstration(s), discussions, worksheets, and activities that will introduce food appreciation concepts to young children to encourage them to make healthier food decisions.
We will introduce students to deliciously prepared fruits and vegetables, and teach them the importance of choosing these foods over sugary ones for overall health. There is a presentation to discuss food needs and wants. We will help the children understand the cycle of food production, from farm to table.
A presentation segment is devoted to sharing with students the importance of jobs. There are so many in the cooking industry such as restaurant owners, chefs, caterers, educating chefs, food scientists, food writers, cookbook authors, cooking editors, food bloggers, and TV food stylists. Students will be able to respond by sharing what some of their favorite foods and jobs are. Within these careers, we will explore the connection of cooking with math, science, language arts, and social studies.
A few students will be called up by the chef instructor to be part of the demonstration(s). These fun programs help students understand what it is like to work with food and connect the skills they learn in the classroom.
