During this one time class, students will whip up a batch of homemade dough using simple ingredients. The addition of Kool Aid adds a vibrant color and a WONDERFUL smell. Yum! This dough is NOT edible, but wonderful for sensory and fun STEAM play! During class we will start with a short introduction of all learners, we will review materials and ingredients, then we will dive in to the experiment. This is a great opportunity for students to truly be hands on, doing measuring, counting, working on fine and gross motor skills, and ultimate creativity when the modeling dough is complete. During class I will be actively demonstrating and assembling the dough along with your learners. I enjoy when students ask questions or share anecdotes so no all mute class necessary here! No previous experience or knowledge required. If time allows at the end of class we can play with our new creation together! **Parental Guidance is needed to handle some hot water during preparation!**

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello there! My name is Mary and I'm a professionally trained chef with experience in restaurants, country clubs, catering, and institutional cooking. I love to train young chefs in the "hows" and "whys" of cooking so every meal will be delicious! I thoroughly believe in hand on instruction, for cooking there is no other way. There is a ton of math, science, and creativity involved in cooking, so I try to feature those elements as well whenever I can.
My sister is a teacher and I have learned a lot of good tips and tricks for introducing a love of literacy to young children! I enjoy reading aloud to my family and like to offer classes that involve reading and snacking!
I enjoy having inquisitive learners in my classes, you will not find a class that's all PowerPoint or an all mute class from me. I love for students to ask questions, be curious, and make comments. I love to eat, travel, read, laugh, and spend time with my kids and family. I also am passionate about arts and crafts and love to get messy once in a while with glitter!
If you have a child that's passionate about culinary arts please message me about one-on-one cooking lessons and/or sessions. I can also do private birthday parties where we can cook or bake together.
