Evaluating Baking Basics Concepts and Knowledge

Home Baking Assignment
Students may complete one or more home cooking assignments preparing baked products related to the work in the Baking Basics module. As part of the assignment, the student could create an evaluation scorecard for the baked product selected and have a parent/guardian or teacher evaluate the baked product. The student could also self-evaluate the product, identifying anything that could be improved or changed during the preparation or baking process.


Food Pricing Assignment
Option 1:
Using the Ingredient Price Chart , students may calculate the cost of baked products. The Recipe Costing Chart asks students to calculate the cost of a batch of pancakes and a recipe of bannock.

Option 2: A field trip to the local grocery store will allow students to price convenience forms of the same foods (for example, a muffin mix and premade muffins). They can then compare the prices of scratch foods with convenience foods. The quality of the product as well as the time used in preparation and clean-up may also be compared.
