Class Experience
This course is a two-day session that teaches students how to make the ever-so-popular French macarons. We will be making a pretty simple recipe of macarons that I've personally tried many times. They are always a hit at every party! Over the course of the first day, we will make the macarons and pipe them onto our tray. There is a sitting period where the macarons need to harden before the baking. During the second day, we will be making the filling and piping the filling onto the macarons...
- Students will take their baking skills to the next level by learning how to make French macarons.
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 also LOVE macarons and eat quite a few of them! :)
