Cooking :

Creating little kitchen helpers.... 

Our students learn food preparation skills at an early age.  Toddler, Primary, and Elementary students prepare their own snacks on a daily basis inside the classroom.  They learn proper table manners, sequencing skills and how to manipulate food preparation and serving tools.

Our Old Atlanta Road school has a vegetable and fruit garden for the children to grow and harvest their own produce for use in the Learning kitchen.  The Learning kitchen is specially designed for youngsters with low counters and thoughtful organization.

Our cooking curriculum has been created by a Montessorian.  The cooking class is one hour long and contains single portion recipes where each child makes an individual serving.  Children learn to be independent and self-sufficient following directions (graphically or literally).  With the individual servings the children get to have a turn to experience every step of the recipe, thus developing more skills and understanding how it all fits together.
