The projects included in this unit are designed to incorporate the abilities of a range of students. Cooperative pairs or groups will assist in peer teaching and learning. Students are assessed on their cooperative work and held accountable for all aspects of the project. Students are also given opportunities for creativity along with problem solving and decision-making. Using technology allows the learning disabled child to succeed with calculation and the gifted and talented child to experiment with options and more complex documents.

The classroom should have a center or an area for the presentation of the final cooking shows. A bulletin board created by the teacher or students makes a nice backdrop, but is not absolutely necessary. A large table and access to an electrical outlet is mandatory. Students may also need access to a refrigerator.
