2. Lesson 1: Textiles This lesson is designed for 7th and 8th grade students for them to learn about the following textiles: cotton, silk, polyester, wool, linen, and fleece. The class will create a list of uses, history, and characteristics of each textile. Students will be put in groups per class and each group will randomly select a textile. Each group will create a wiki page for their selected textile with the appropriate information.
3. Lesson 2: Design Your Dorm Room This lesson is designed for students in grades 10th, 11th, and 12th. Students will select textiles that will be appropriate to decorate their dorm room with. Students will create a Weebly website (www.weebly.com) and have a page for each textile they decide to use to decorate their room. The page should include their textile, how it will be used in the room, and why it is a good selection for its use.
4. Lesson 3: Kitchen Safety This lesson is designed for Culinary Arts students grades 10th, 11th, and 12th. Students may either create a video or podcast on kitchen safety and preventing the spread of bacteria. Students can choose to demonstrate kitchen safety in various ways, ie. Using different cutting boards for cutting meat and cutting produce. If students do not want to create the video, they may have a podcast that is 3-5 minutes long discussing how to prevent the spread of bacteria in the kitchen.
