It is our desire to create a huge collection of Family Consumer Science Lesson Plans to help other teachers have a place to start when faced with new courses or topics that they have to teach. It is our goal…
Blooming Onion Lab
I originally starting doing this lab after a student suggested that we make blooming onions like the ones that they serve at Outback Steak House. I enjoy trying to recreate foods that are sold to consumers so I took on the challenge. In this case a recipe already existed online for Outback’s version so I tried it and my students approved!
Food Network Cake Project
Food Network is very popular among my students so I decided to have them create their own show! I specifically have them demonstrate how to make a cake in front of the class but this idea can be tailored to any unit that lends itself to student demonstrations.
Table Setting Lesson Plan
Its amazing how many students do not learn how to set a table at home these days-even a basic table setting. This lesson teaches students the correct table setting with a hands on approach.
Appliance Comparison Lesson Plan
Students will compare two different brands of the same appliance, choosing one to hypothetically purchase and evaluate their decision.
