This week both First Year and Second Year students are going to start looking at Chapter 11 in our Foundations of Restaurant Management and Culinary Arts Level One Textbook, regarding Grains and Pastas.
This week you’ll be looking at section 2 of chapter 11. We will learn about different grains and legumes, different cooking methods on how to prepare grains and legumes and methods for selecting, receiving and storing grains.
You’ll need to make sure that you login to google classroom on both Tuesday and Thursday for our classroom meetings for your daily assignments.
I’ll update you on where our new “safe” meeting place will take place after our department meeting today. I’ll be emailing you with information on Bigbluebutton found on ILearn, that will now replace our meeting times for Google Meets. The district is providing instructions on how to use this new platform and I’ll email you with directions as well.
At ANY time, if you reach out, I will get back to you as soon as I am able. I am also able to arrange a phone call or Google Meet, if given notice. See iblog/ilearn for additional contact and enrollment info

You may have heard that our e-Learning plan for the school district has been approved and we are moving forward with our learning for the remainder of the school year. Teachers will meet with students through “virtual” means each week and work will be graded!
Please see my Google Classroom for specific assignments and email me at pokrywk@dearbornschools.org if you have questions.
Hello everyone. I miss you all dearly. My hope is that your
all doing well.
Just a few things as we move forward with our on-line
learning.
You’ll need to login to Google Classroom to
access the assignments.
First Year access code is: mrl32ar
Second Year access code is: ofx2gef
You are responsible for completing the online
assignments daily, as there will be due dates set and times set.
Cheating will not be accepted. Google Classroom
allows us to see what was shared, copied or plagiarized. Don’t cheat, work on
the assignment on your own and you won’t have to worry.
Tests will be provided via I-Learn and they too
will be timed. You all have access to I-learn, just like in class.
We will continue with the chapters that we left
off on from Thursday of last week.
First year will still be on chapter 6 Stock,
Sauces and Soups
Second year will still be on chapter 4 Salads
and Garnishing
Please don’t hesitate to email me if you have any additional
questions.
As you know we are in a very
difficult situation working remotely with your student to get them through the
school year. That’s why I need your help. Your son or
daughter is a member of my Culinary Arts class and has material to work on
every single day. If your student does not continue with their online
program their grade is going to drop and they will not be able to pass. You
are, in essence, their homeschool teacher while we are in crisis mode.
Therefore, I am writing to kindly ask you to monitor your student in regards to
their studies. Would you please encourage your student to work at least 1
to 2 hours per day? I look forward to working with you during this
time. Please email me back to let me know that you are on board with the
plan. Together we can make this work!
Last week the students went to the back of the house for the first time and started learning their knife cuts.We’re just learning the basics of the classroom and what is being asked of each student.In the next few weeks we’ll start to go the back of the house more often to get the students used to it before we open up the restaurant which will be around October.
