Advanced Foods tested over their unit about casseroles and stir-fries. Then their favorite part was two different labs. 22 students (all boys and one girl) learned how to use a wok and the order of the steps to make a stir-fry. All of their ingredients need to be cut the same size, so it was also a good lab to review their knife skills. Advanced Foods students learned about the history of the casserole and all of the different ways you can make a hot dish. The casseroles and stir-fries took four days of classes, and they were amazingly delicious!

Advanced Foods has been working on learning about sauces, stews, and soups.
Here is a picture of a food science lab with the students learning how to make a roux. Every chef needs to know the importance of thickening a cream sauce with flour, butter, and milk, a French word called a "roux."

Last day of building for the 4th grade Dream Bedroom PBL project! These kids have been amazing—showing creativity, problem-solving, and so much perseverance as they brought their ideas to life with their 3D models.
This week, we’re shifting gears to writing as they draft persuasive letters to their parents, trying to convince them to make their dream bedrooms a reality. We can’t wait to see how they use their hard work and designs to support their arguments!

The 4th graders are showing incredible creativity and hard work during their dream bedroom PBL project- Day 4! As they build their 3D models, they’re learning that things don’t always go as planned—and that’s okay. They’ve been problem-solving, making changes, and sticking with it to bring their ideas to life. It’s been awesome to see their perseverance and flexible thinking in action!’

The 4th graders are putting their math skills to work in an exciting PBL project! They designed their dream bedrooms by creating blueprints using area, perimeter, and scale factor. After planning, they calculated the cost of their designs—and now they’re bringing their ideas to life by building 3D models of their dream spaces. So much creativity and real-world learning is happening!
