 |
|
This might be stupid but I'm gonna ask, cause there's a lot of smart people out there. I want to do a cooking class during summer camp. I however am a lazy teacher with no money.
Can you think of something simple the kids could make that isn't going to require me to drag all kinds of crap to school and be relatively cheap to make? Does anyone have any ideas? |

| Spaghetti bolognese isn't over the top expensive. Ask your school for some cash, though. Someone is paying/receiving cash for the camp |

| I made ice cream in a bag with my students earlier today. It was mentioned in an earlier thread about summer camp activities. It went over very well. Supplies were all pretty easy to get a hold of, but you will need a lot of ice! I bought enough supplies for 12 students and it came out to 20,000 won. |

I made pancakes with my kids the other day. It went over well.
But you'll have to do a few dishes, so it might not be for you. |

Pancakes sound like a good idea - you can make savoury and sweet fillings.
Another easy one is tomato sauce for pasta or for pizza dough bases and you can ask the kids to bring in food that they can add, eg ham, veggies, hotdogs, spam, tuna and, of course, kimchi 
You can easily Google recipes. Good luck with it and would be good to hear how it works out. |

Isn't that bachelor's food?  Or, do the Koreans look at it like that "booty jiggy" stuff? |

Last camp I taught students how to make chocolate chip banana pancakes. A big bag of ottogi pancake mix, M & Ms, bananas, ottogi maple syrup/chocolate syrup. I brought in my own cooking utensils to demonstrate and teach key vocabulary concerning names of food/cooking utensils/common verbs associated with cooking and the target language being sequential expressions, "First,...", "Then,...", "After that,..", etc.
The school supplied enough cooking equipment for me to set up 4 cooking stations in the class and I let the students cook as I walked around, monitored and asked questions. I recommend it for upper middle school students and up only.
It was good fun for all and a big hit, but a one time show during camp due to the time it takes to prep and, of course, costs. It was well worth it though. I may do something similar this camp. Hmmm....Pizza Toast sounds good. Anybody got a few toast ovens I can bum? |

| What about French Toast? That would be an easy thing to do as well. |

I received a question about ice cream in a bag via PM, but because I don't have the required number of posts, I could not respond directly...
I didn't use rock salt. I just bought the coarsest salt I found in the supermarket. It seemed to work fine. The recipe I used was from:
http://homeparents.about.com/od/recipesandcrafts/r/zip_icecream.htm
I didn't use vanilla, though. Instead, I bought flavoured milk (strawberry, banana and chocolate) which was a big hit with the kids!
Hope this helps. Have fun! |

Just saw this site on PBS this morning and thought of this thread. Some cheap stuff to whip up fun for kids and teach them some ABC's along with it. Give your director a shopping list.
