Culinary Center Class with Lower Elementary I and II

March 29, 2023

Lower Elementary I and II had a wonderful time using FOA’s brand-new Culinary Center yesterday for their first cooking class with Ms. April. These 1st-3rd grade students learned kitchen safety, how to use kitchen tools, and how to keep the area clean while cooking. They also learned how to measure ingredients and the best ways to chop, grate, and season the food they were preparing. They made minestrone soup loaded with vegetables and beans that everyone enjoyed tasting and eating.

A special thank you to all of the families who donated their time, money, and resources to make this fantastic kitchen and culinary center possible! #fiveoaksacademy #foamontessori #foamontessorilife
