Teachers on Teaching: In a Child's Kitchen
Schenkelberg, Elizabeth
Young Children, v58 n6 p94-96 Nov 2003
A new preschool teacher centers her class' curriculum on cooking. She is surprised to learn that not only are cooking options limited by children's health concerns, but young children do not embrace new foods and flavors. Respecting the children's preferences, the teacher adapts the cooking theme to the children's differences and needs.
