By popular request... introducing, American Girl x Baking! This 3 day camp is an opportunity to learn about American Girl book character, Courtney Moore while baking some fun treats. Each meeting, we will learn, chat, and bake! **This is an extended version of my one-time Courtney class. I use the same materials/slides/information, just split into three days while adding some baking activities.*** In this three time class, I will introduce Courtney from the American Girl book series. We will talk about who she is and why her book is a great example of female empowerment, familial strength, and resilience. Courtney grows up in the 1980's and she is right in the heart of a new blended family. She loves video games but is saddened to not see girls represented in the games... all while her mother is running for mayor. We will explore the different cultural shifts that arose in the 1980's along with some of the major historical events that occurred during the same time. I will review a brief preview of her book/stories, talk about Courtney and her characteristics, but mostly, talking about the time in which she lived. I will talk about what it was like to be a kid living in America during the 1980's. Day 1: We will introduce Courtney and learn a bit about her while making French bread pizza. Day 2: We will discuss the highlights of Courtney's book series with an emphasis on book #1, "Courtney Changes The Game" while making Ranch popcorn. Day 3: We will talk a bit about the 1980's in America while making Orange Julius inspired drinks.
Metas de aprendizaje

Orientación para padres
Potential Hazards: Students will need to use the oven, stove-top, microwave, and mixer during this baking camp.
Even though students will be studying a historical time frame, we will not always be following historical methods of baking and/or recipes. This class is geared towards a 8-14-year-old audience, but parents are always welcomed to be close by. :)

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 hope that from this course, you can take some of my passion for history and for American Girl and get a little more excited about learning about other people. There are so many fun and exciting things to learn about! I can’t wait to share them with you!
