Comparing Edible Communities
Overview
Students will explore the components of a community by creating analogies between aspects of a community and ingredients within a recipe. Students will demonstrate the cohesion among community areas as they attempt to create cookies from various recipes that have missing ingredients. Students will realize that the removal of one ingredient directly influences the entire product. This action is analogous to the removal of any vital aspect of a community. As one community area disappears, others are directly influenced.
