In the kitchen, we have established a set of rituals and routines for the students so they know what to do during each phase of the lesson. Students:
- Line up outside the kitchen classroom and wait to be greeted by a kitchen teacher
- Enter the kitchen, put their backpacks away in the cubbies, put on an apron and meet at the middle table for the Chef Meeting
- Wash their hands after the Chef Meeting and go to their table groups
- Work in the same table groups for their entire kitchen rotation
- Choose their kitchen jobs each kitchen class
- Serve everybody at the table before eating
- Bus their dishes and clean the kitchen after every kitchen class
