By popular request... introducing, American Girl x Baking! This 3 day camp is an opportunity to learn about American Girl book character, Kit Kittredge while baking some fun treats. Each meeting, we will learn, chat, and bake! **This is an extended version of my one-time Kit class. I use the same materials/slides/information, just split into three days while adding some baking activities.*** In this three time class, I will introduce Kit from the American Girl book series. We will talk about who she is and why her books are great examples of resourcefulness, kindness, and supporting her family in any way possible. I will review a brief preview of all of her books/stories, talk about Kit and her characteristics, but mostly, talking about the time in which she lived. I will talk about what it was like to be a kid living in America during the time of the Great Depression. Day 1: We will introduce Kit and learn a bit about her while making macaroni & cheese cups. Day 2: We will discuss the highlights of Kit's book series with an emphasis on book #1, "Meet Kit" while making puff pancakes. Day 3: We will talk a bit about the Great Depression while baking baked apple pudding.
Learning Goals
Students will learn different elements of the Great Depression using the American Girl "Kit" book series as a reference.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Potential Hazards: Students will need to use the oven, stove-top, microwave, and mixer during this baking camp.
Even though students will be studying a historical time frame, we will not always be following historical methods of baking and/or recipes. This class is geared towards a 8-14-year-old audience, but parents are always welcomed to be close by. :)

Wisconsin Teaching Certificate in Social Studies/History
Hi there!
My name is Mrs. Rodenbeck and I am a middle school history teacher! I have taught 6th, 7th, and 8th, grade history for the past 5 years! Before that, I taught high school history. I absolutely LOVE learning about people from the past! I like understanding how people lived in different times in history.
I studied anthropology in college. My goal as a kid was to be Indiana Jones! Archaeology and cultural anthropology are my favorite disciplines. I like to learn about what past peoples have built and how those things impact their culture. I’ve even done work for Chicago’s Field Museum since 2007. Now I work in the education department at the Field Museum with other teachers and bringing history topics into their classrooms.
I love teaching about the American Girl books and their periods of time in history because I used to WORK at the American Girl store in Chicago. I worked there all throughout my college years. I loved American Girl when I was a kid and I loved it, even more, when I worked at the store in college!
I hope that from this course, you can take some of my passion for history and for American Girl and get a little more excited about learning about other people. There are so many fun and exciting things to learn about! I can’t wait to share them with you!
