Well, as many of you talk about your classrooms, my classroom is a kitchen. So the decorations in the classroom, I don't need to worry about- nor the lighting. But I do have a little space on the walls here and there that I try to decorate. I use pictures of food (of course)- pictures of meat cuts- and then over tool box, I have a several framed pictures of color chips I got at the hardware store, all arranged in some sort of order. I numbered each color. this is always a conversation piece! What I use this chart for is for explaining to students what color a food item is suppose to be after it has been properly cooked. Since I am unable to demostrate EVERY recipe, this is a great visual learning. "Your cooked spinach is suppose to be #'s 13, 14, or 15. Colors 20,21,22, 30 will result in point loss". so on and so forth. I tried to add a picture but you I couldn't figure out how to do so. fun!
