OVER 140 Editable RECIPES

Calling all Home Ec and Culinary teachers... Looking for a food recipe? These are MY recipes: crock pot recipes, easy recipes... all of my favorites. And this growing collection of recipes is editable! Recently updated with extra recipes! I’ve tried and loved these recipes over the years. I've made notes on them and tweaked them to my taste. My 12-year old son complimented with, “Mom, can you make sure I have all of your recipes before you die?” That lovely (albeit odd) request led me to begin typing up my recipes. And since I have an older son who lives half a country away, I decided to make a Christmas gift of a recipe book. This undertaking was not as easy as it sounds. I typed, printed, laminated, AND inserted recipes into a recipe book (bought at Michael’s with my 40% off coupon: Score!). Bonus: All of my own scattered recipes are also laminated and neatly organized. Extra Bonus: They are ready to assemble for my next child with the click of a button. Extra Bonus Plus: They are ready to include in my store for gourmands like you! These recipes are editable. You may not like onions. You may not want the name “Jack’s Potato Soup.” I almost neutralized them, but decided against it. Feel free to click, cut, and “fix” to your liking. Another way to use these? Print, laminate, stack, and tie with a fancy ribbon for a great TEACHER'S GIFT! It’s inexpensive, easy, and will be treasured! If you are the Homeroom parent, this is a great gift for the teacher. The recipe cards include: --Spinach- Stuffing Bites --The BEST Chicken Salad --Chinese Chicken Salad --Chicken Wreath --Chase Pasta Bake --Sausage Surprise --Oreo Balls --Avalanche Cookies --Braden’s Broccoli Casserole --Rose’s Microwaved Scalloped Potatoes --Slow Cooker Macaroni --Chocolate Chip Fluff and much, much more! This product is made with PowerPoint. It is not intended to be viewed; it is intended to be printed. Simply print and clip! Thanks! Happy eating! Home Economics is now also called Domestic Science, Domestic Economy, or Home Management.

Eleven by Sandra Cisneros

An EATS lesson plan with an Essential Question, vocabulary, activating strategy, teaching strategies, and a summarizing strategy (Exit Ticket). ✓Worksheets- Just print and go! ✓Answer key ... are all included. ✓ The 20-slide PowerPoint, 5-page lesson plan, and 2-page worksheet are aligned with the CCSS.Lit. 6-7.3 & 6-7.5. Created to be easy to use and fully engaging, the lesson plan pairs with the worksheets that I have created to be very successful with "Eleven," a short story found in most middle school anthologies. The lesson has a sample answer to the Essential Question (How do characters respond to change as the plot moves toward a resolution?), which I have found to be extremely helpful for students. They are able to see an effective answer before they are expected to write one. The sample is on "The Three Little Pigs." Students get to discuss the example answer before they write their own response for the exit ticket. I have also included the instructions and sample for the PALS reading strategy- as I've found this to be an effective strategy with short stories in my classroom. Students will discuss being eleven, write a six-word memoir, read “Name” from House on Mango Street, and more. External and Internal conflict are discussed. If you have the short story “Eleven” by Sandra Cisneros in your anthology, this lesson is for you!

Nelson Mandela's "Long Walk to Freedom" and Rita Dove's "An Interview: I Was Not Alone" (an essay on Rosa Parks) are perfect short non-fiction selections for Black History Month. Focus on heroes, cause and effect, black history, and more! This resource includes: --one-page lesson plan, --three worksheets, --a basic PowerPoint for Rosa Parks, ---a PALS instruction and example, and --answer keys. The PowerPoint is editable for your convenience. Using the Common Core Standards and Learning Focused, I have included an EATS lesson plan with an Essential Question, preview vocabulary (including CAUSE and EFFECT), activating strategy, teaching strategies and a summarizing strategy (Exit Ticket). Further, this lesson pairs students to work on cause and effect together. The texts of "An Interview: I Was Not Alone" and "The Long Walk to Freedom" are NOT included due to copyright laws. Please make sure you have access to the texts before purchasing this resource. The lesson plan, worksheets, and PPT are time-saving and effective. Thank you!
