When the classroom becomes a kitchen and/or a pub

When devising this unit I had in mind a group of unmotivated "diversified" students who were strongly influenced by the current TV cookery programmes...Master chef, The snack,...

Students learned to cook some dishes at home, brought them to school and we did not set the kitchen or the classroom or each other on fire...Basically, we learned through doing things creatively and had some fun WHILE TRYING NEW DISHES..Some of our students might end up working in a restaurant or pub along the coast....
