Students will engage in the 4 Corners activity. At each corner of the room, a large sheet of paper will be posted. Working in small groups, students will travel to each corner and write down at least one dish that is made using a grill, an oven, a deep fryer, and cold ingredients from the walk-in. Once completed, we will discuss what dishes students came up with as a class.

Finally, students will complete an exit card before class ends. They should write about one thing they learned from the day’s lesson, one question they have, and one thing they had trouble understanding. These will be written on index cards and handed to the instructor before she leaves.
