In this semester long flex class students will learn how to make delicious dinners from scratch. Using recipes that are kid friendly and easy to follow.  I will teach the students step by step how to mix their ingredients, cook and finish their meals using video and edpuzzle. Edpuzzle allows students the opportunity to view the cooking and creation process and interact by answering questions.  We will learn how to make chicken, beef and pork dishes (I can also accommodate recipes for students who do not use meat) as well as soups . Students will be using the Outschool discussion board to share their finished dinner pictures and discussions. Students will be expected to share pictures of their finished dinner projects and give an overall assessment of the flavor and texture of their completed assignment. Students are expected to comment and discuss with each other the pros and cons of the recipe, family likes/dislikes, and suggestions on how either the dinner could be better or how they would change it in the future. 
I will use the Outschool platform  to share with students the mixing and cooking of our recipes. I teach using a "tell, show, do, feedback" model that is similar to the gradual release models used in school. I post the recipes and videos on Monday of each week, starting on the first day of their class, all recipes are listed below by week.  

No experience is needed for baking/cooking, but parental guidance is suggested for hot oven/stove use.
