Description

Students discover the exciting and incredible world of cooking, health, and nutrition through the passions of a real Chef as they see how to apply Science. This workshop focuses on "matter". This program re-enforces what students learned about different tools of temperature measurement, states of matter and how changes in matter happen when cooking. Age appropriate exercises and cooking demonstrations using scientific concepts will help students discover and make sense of their world. Lively cooking and engaging activities, informative lessons, games, and relays allow students to develop life-skills to make healthier choices for their success. This assembly is tailored to be appropriate for early, middle, or upper elementary grades.
