With the holidays upon us, join me as we discover new recipes that involve one of my favorite all time foods, CRANBERRIES as well as learn how to make turkey pot pie from scratch! These classes will be a combination of video, PowerPoint, demonstration, discussion and will incorporate video of each recipe. Students can participate along as the the teacher leads them through the steps of the recipe. In addition to learning new recipes, students will gain confidence and experience in their own kitchen.

There will also be discussion questions and activities for students to complete learning about how cranberries grow. Class 3: Students will make Turkey Pot Pie from scratch as well learn how to make their own pie crust. Activities this week will discuss how students can use leftovers and manage food waste with their family. Class 4: Students will make Cranberry Oat bars. Activities will include creating a food plan for an upcoming holiday event. By enrolling in the class, families accept full responsibility for their learner's safety which includes but not limited to kitchen materials and the ingredients. **A note on how I teach a flexible schedule class** -All posts and lessons will be made by 10 am Pacific as I am on the west coast of the USA -In a flexible schedule class, there are class video lessons, discussion questions and activities. All material and interaction will be posted within the platform. Students will need access to grocery store websites, recipe websites, and cookbooks. In addition, supplemental material will be used via EdPuzzle -Students can post videos using the record feature in the classroom, copies of their work and or photos and respond to each other. -My goal is to respond within 24 hours to each student's post -My FAQ on my approach is also in this video: (http://bit.ly/WhatisFlex).
Learning Goals
In addition, students will be able to:
-determine and explain how cranberries are grown
-create a meal plan for an upcoming holiday

Since my twins were extremely young, they have always been in the kitchen with me cooking and creating. We learned to adapt recipes to fit our dietary needs as one of my daughters was diagnosed with severe food allergies as a toddler.Reviews
