=Welcome to Basic Foods and Nutrition!=

Basic Foods & Nutrition is course designed to prepare students to provide home for themselves. We will learn the basics including: Kitchen Health & Safety; Nutrition Basics; Beginning Cooking Skills. Our text will be the [|Guide to Good Food]. We will be using the interactive student site so feel free to explore it when you get a chance. I have put a link to it from the book title.

We will spend the first half of the semester learning all the "ins and outs" of the kitchen and nutrition. After we have mastered that, we will dive into cooking! During labs, all students must wear aprons. You may bring your own or I will provide them for you!

Your grades will be determined through a variety of ways. There will be tests and quizzes, as well as special projects. Cooking Labs will be graded on attendance, behavior and the finished product.

The successful completion of this course will allow students to enroll in Advanced Foods and Nutrition!
