Flying Solo: Cookin’ with Care – Breakfast Club Edition

Teens will learn some basic skills on how to fly solo when it comes to making breakfast. Activities will include time in our classroom learning about each skill and practicing during role plays, as well as putting the skills to use by choosing a meal to make, finding ingredients, cookin’ it up and cleaning up after themselves! The following topics will be covered:

A Behaviour Plan will be created for each participant that will outline their learning goals for the group as well as a progress review to summarize outcomes.
