Class Experience

Sink or Float? FOOD Edition with Chef Mary is a great class for all curious young people! We will test 8 food related objects to see if they sink or float. We will cover a few scientific terms such as prediction, experiment, observation, and results. During this class we will start with a short introduction of all learners, cover what we will be doing that day, and then start the experiment. Kids can feel free to follow along with their own materials and water, but it is not required! I love open feedback, questions, and kids personal anecdotes so no all mute class here. I will teach by actively demonstrating the sink or float experiment and by speaking about scientific terms. During class I will be actively asking opinions of students and letting students speak. No previous experience or knowledge is needed. Some parental guidance may be needed if students are doing the experiment at home too.

Learning Goals

Students will learn basic scientific terms and learn what sinks and floats!

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Some parental guidance may be needed if the student chooses to do the experiment at home too, as it will involve water and a large container.
Supply List
If your learner would like to experiment at home too they will need:
 
1 large container/bowl filled halfway with water

We will be experimenting with 8 food related items to see if they sink or float
1. Apple
2. Fork
3. Carrot
4. Potato
5. Dry Noodles
6. Strawberry
7. Popcorn Kernels
8. Marshmallow

Optional: Bring a few extra food items if desired to share if they sink or float!
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Profile
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.
