Eat Your Art Out!

Studying Temporary Art in the form of Oreo Relief Sculptures and Pancake Art was a HUGE hit! I think the kids were really surprised at the whole "kitchen" environment and the shift in my role from Teacher to Mom as I served them cold milk throughout the period. Their role as students also shifted to a more "hospitality" role. Once they became efficient with the pancake batter and creating their designs their need to "share" their creations flourished like true artists. Very quickly the classroom turned into a cafe and we began taking orders from staff, flipping pancakes, and delivering!
