I currently work at a health center in a high school and am interested in developing a cooking class for the students. Teenagers are difficult to engage and we are hoping to create a model for the class that is fun, engaging, and sustainable. We are thinking the class would be weekly. Ideally, the teacher would be the same the entire time, rather than a guest chef each week, but we'll see what we can get. Any ideas for fun, healthy recipes or special teaching methods that are teen-friendly? What about fun home-work assignments or ways to eventually involve parents or the community? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
