4th/5th Grade Edible Social Studies: Week 4

The fourth and fifth grade chefs viewed an animated explanation of why human behavior has caused climate change this week, which sparked lots of interesting discussion about why it’s so hard for people to act and why it will take all of us working together to solve the problem.

In the kitchen we made a Cobb salad, but with plant-based bacon instead of the traditional animal bacon. Everyone had a lot of fun putting together this composed salad, with all the different components displayed in rows and garnished with minced parsley from our school garden. Because we do not have an oven in our classroom, each class prepared the coconut bacon recipe, which was then baked for the next class to enjoy.
