Background For Teachers:
Have lab groups prepared ahead of time.
Student Prior Knowledge:
None... it actually works best if they've never been in a kitchen before. Intended Learning Outcomes:
Students will recognize the purpose of using recipes when cooking. Instructional Procedures:
1. Have students go back to their kitchens.
2. Tell them they are going to be making grilled cheese sandwiches as a group.
3. Don't give them any instructions on how to make a grilled cheese sandwich. Let them try to figure it out as a group.
4. As they argue, tell them they have to work it out as a group. (Unless it gets really ugly).
5. After the lab, have them outline the problems they ran into as a group and list these on the board.
6. Discuss the purpose of a recipe with the class and give them examples of good recipes from cookbooks to look at.
Strategies For Diverse Learners:
Students can help each other while in the kitchen.
Assessment Plan:
Give the students credit for following lab rules and procedures. They should also get some credit for positively participating in their group.
