Thanksgiving Visual Recipes and Kitchen Safety Life Skills

Simple holiday recipes with step by step visuals, plus the kitchen safety skills students need before they cook. This 24 page packet helps students follow a recipe in order and stay safe while they work in the kitchen.

The packet includes visual recipes, safety rules, sequencing and comprehension pages at more than one level, teacher notes, answer keys and a skills checklist. Students read or look at each picture step, put the steps in order, and answer questions to show they understood. The safety pages cover the habits students need before they cook, such as washing hands, handling hot items and using tools with care. Pages come at more than one level so a mixed group can work on the same lesson.

This resource is made for life skills, culinary and transition classrooms serving ages 14 to 21. The pages look adult and use no brand names, so they suit high school students and young adults. It is a great fit for a November cooking lesson or community based instruction.

The file is a PDF with 24 pages. Answer keys are provided for the teacher.
