Cooking
Grades 3 - 5
Description
Pizza Mania!
If your child is a pizza hound, this is the afterschool class for them! Each week we will make an international pizza (i.e. French bread Pizza, Indian flatbread pizza with sun dried tomatoes, goat cheese, corn and pesto, Italian Margherita Pizza, etc) and learn about the culture the pizza hails from. Fun and Yum!
Cooking with Mindy gives students the opportunity to learn about the world by cooking and eating! Children learn cooking skills while experiencing a country’s culinary flavors. Dishes include creamy Italian pesto, Israeli potato, carrot and zucchini latkes, Mexican tortilla soup and Canadian butternut squash and maple mac and cheese. This is a nut-free program.
All Food and Materials Included
About the Instructor: Mindy Myers has been in the field of education for more than 20 years, teaching, writing curriculum design, and serving as a principal. She loves working with kids and they love working with her. When she offered up explanations about a food's origins and the customs behind preparing the food, she watched the children's engagement grow. "Cooking and eating takes on a different meaning when you understand the back story," said Mindy. "Learning a little bit about a country, then preparing that country's food truly enriches the cooking lesson, and makes the eating experience that much more delicious!"
