Raleigh Hills K8 6th Grade Health hasn't added a story.
Hi, I am Ms. Kellogg, the 6th grade math, science, and health teacher at Raleigh Hills. Our health class wants to host a 3 day workshop meant to inspire and inform teenagers about preparing their own snacks. The 3 day workshop will be led by Beth Gates who has been involved with promoting cooking and teaching cooking classes to teens for over 8 years in the Portland area. Each day she will bring a new recipe for the students to make themselves: quick pickles, smoothies, and fancy toast. The goal is that students will have the knowledge to prepare snacks that are: delicious, affordable, nutritious , and are informed by sustainable practices (low packaging etc) Students will be eating the food they prepare as well as collecting recipes, and taking home their own pickles. They will also be given instruction on what it means to shop within a growing season and using seasonal fruits and vegetables. As sixth graders, many students are now home alone after school and are preparing snacks, if not meals, for themselves. I feel it is important to empower them to make informed choices about the food they eat. Last year, Beth taught a one “smoothie” making lesson to our 6th grade students and it was described as a highlight of the year by the kids.
Beth Gates is part of the CookFirst Collective. The mission of the collective is to cultivate home cooking, cooking with ingredients “on-hand” or seasonably available, and to inspire risk taking in the kitchen. Beth has taught youth cooking classes both as after school programs in PPS middle schools as well as Saturday Academy courses through PCC. Last year Beth taught a one “smoothie” making lesson to our 6th grade students and it was described as a highlight of the year by the kids.
