In this one-time class, students will become Valentine chefs as they make a Valentine’s Day popcorn treat. First we will go over the recipe together. Then students will follow the steps to make the popcorn treat using the microwave – no stove or oven required. As the teacher, I will be making the recipe along with the students, providing visual and verbal guidance. As a class, we will discuss favorite popcorn flavors, candy, and more. Asking questions and commenting are encouraged! No prior experience is needed for this class, but a basic knowledge of kitchen equipment will be helpful. Students will need access to a microwave.
Learning Goals
Students will practice the skills of following a recipe, sequencing, requesting help as needed, and fine motor skills of stirring and pouring ingredients.

Parental Guidance
Some parental guidance may be needed to help operate the microwave and/or take dishes out of the microwave.
