Parmesan Meatballs and Garlic Bread

Making And Sharing Reflection

Making- Our step by Step plan for making this recipe was to all separate and do different things then combine them all as a group when we were all done our individual group. For example, one person cut the onions, one person prepared the meat, one person cut the bread and the last person made the butter mixture for the garlic bread. To minimize waste my group made sure we used all of our ingredients and used a spatula while transferring things out of our measuring cups.

Sharing- I shared this recipe with my mom and actually made this for my family when I got home.

Core Competency Reflection

Communication- As an active listener, I notice that I make eye contact while listening to someone when there talking and nod my head to show them that I understand the information there giving me.

While working in the kitchen, I help to build and extend my understanding by taking lead and making sure everyone is on the same page so there is no mistakes made while completing a recipe.

Examples of where I communicate clearly and purposefully can be seen in food labs with my group. We make up a plan and communicate, that’s key for time management and one of the reasons were finished early

Collecting relevant information for specific tasks can be something I can work on. Sometimes I just put all the information I find down instead of funnelling it and only putting the necessary information down.

Basic Scones

Making and sharing Reflection

My groups plan for making scones was to get everything out and set up before we started, this helped with organization and time management. While making these scones we made sure to use a spatula to get all the ingredients out of our measuring cups to ensure there was no food waste. For these scones to have a flakey look we made sure to use cold butter and to not over mix our ingredients together. My group finished early and got to enjoy our scones in class, I would definitely make these again. Me and my group worked very well together and were very organized throughout this lab.

Core competency reflection

When I need to work collaboratively with people I don’t know well, I start a conversation with them so I can get to know them better.

If the group is not productive, we can try and get more organized in order to get things moving in the right direction.

I know the group isn’t working well together when I hear outside of school conversations and I see people not on task.

The ways I communicate while cooking are different from how I communicate at volleyball practice/games.
