About This Product
Get ready for a recipe full of creativity and a pinch of giggles! This If I Were a Chef writing and drawing activity is cooked up especially for K–2 students who love food, fun, and a good story. Whether they’re dreaming of flipping pancakes, baking cookies as big as their heads, or opening a five-star pizza palace, this prompt lets them imagine life as a master chef.
Students will write about what kind of food they’d cook, who they’d cook for, and maybe even invent a dish (spaghetti tacos, anyone?). After writing, they’ll illustrate their delicious idea, expect colorful drawings of kitchens, food trucks, or even castles made of cupcakes.
Ways to Use:
Great for a fun writing center, early finisher activity, or Food Week.
Use during Career Day or when teaching about community helpers.
Pair with a cooking or food-themed read-aloud for cross-curricular fun.
Advantages:
Builds imagination while sneaking in writing skills (sneaky, we know).
Helps students express ideas through both words and art.
Encourages vocabulary and sentence building in a relatable, yummy context.
Zero prep, just print and go (no oven mitts required).
Pdf file includes 2 pages.
Enjoy!
