Counting money is such an important life skill and something our area employers ask that their employees know how to do. Mrs. Schmitt started with 7th Grade FCS and taught them how to properly count back money to a customer. The students learn by using play money that looks realistic and play food. This is a hard concept for them to learn, but they gave it a great try!

What can you make with corn flour? That was the driving question for the Spanish III students in their PBL. We began by exploring what foods have corn flour as an ingredient from the Spanish-speaking countries around the world. Then, we made plain tortillas, so we could learn that basic food. Paola shared with us an authentic dish from Columbia, and Anaí's mom made tamales for our classes. Between the 3 classes, there were very few dishes repeated. The students made tacos, quesadillas, street corn nachos, dessert nachos, pupusas, huaraches, sopes, gorditas, and more! The experience was fun and the food was great!
