La gran competencia semanal de repostería para estudiantes con ejercicios para desarrollar habilidades

Please note that this is for the Pre-teen Section.  There is a separate section available for teens. 

Recently after the success of our Outschool group, I decided to turn our bake-off group into ongoing and multiple day classes. This class is the ongoing section.  Each week we bring one recipe to finish in class based on the theme of the week. Teacher will provide a basic recipe for students for each week that can be used.  As a group, we will vote on two winners.  One for most creative recipe, the other for Star Baker.  Students that win will receive certificates each week and on occasion we will have grand prizes for money towards future Outschool classes.

For this course students need:  

Access to Baking Ingredients & Kitchenware
Access to an Oven & Fridge
Access to a Clean Work Surface


At the beginning of class, we will work on our skills building activity.  Teacher may provide link before class for students to work on skill with weekly recipe.  For example, in Class one, we will look at Knife Sharpening techniques and Chopping Techniques.  A Nearpod will be posted before class begins and then discussed as we create our weekly masterpiece.   Students will be given 40 minutes to finish their recipes and then we will begin judging.  Time management will be essential for the class, but it is also all about having fun.  If the recipes don't turn out perfect, no worries, it is all a learning process, and we are all learning from each other.
