3. My approach with this
population
Getting to the
point where
students are
open to being
challenged can
be difficult
4. Meet them where they
are
Most students can only think of food: so I use
that as a hook as much as possible
Other "hooks": music, art, sports
(Anything that could be considered distracting)
6. Why dough?
Ag science lesson: I have students who were
recently placed on gluten-free diets.
Student was being teased
Learned about gluten to reduce stigma
Enjoyed yummy food
7. Activity
I had a couple of recipe cards available with all
ingredients to make: pancakes and pizza dough
