The document provides classroom rules and safety procedures for a kitchen lab class. It instructs students to wash hands properly, avoid cross-contamination, and use knives safely. Students must dress appropriately, read recipes thoroughly before lab, and evaluate their own planning, preparation, management and finished product. Proper kitchen lab attire and obtaining permission for supplies is also required.
