worksheets about bakery, patisserie, pastry, bread, baking for ADULT learners
|
Hi everyone, I �m Tanja and I teach at a German vocational school for professions related to cooking and baking. My students are mainly teenagers or adults in their early twenties who are training to be pastry chefs. Do you have any nice worksheets or other ideas for this target group? Thanks so much Tanja |

Hi Tanja, One thing that came to my mind was to challenge them to make recipes, you can organise a competition for the best recipe. They can also do some research on pastries from other countries and make powerpoint presentations for the classmates. They could also prepare the English Pastry Day or Week or something like that. I have never taught pastry students so I don �t have any worksheets and these ideas may be a bit vague but I think some might work. jfaraujo |

Here are some ideas if stds are int or above:
1. Using the glossary at this site, stds in pairs create a vocabulary wall / activity card set / ppt by finding googling images to match each word
2. Stds research a famous pastry chef and prepare a short talk for the class. For example, many would be surprised to learn that Ho Chi Minh was a pastry chef on a liner
3. In pairs, stds choose a country and then google the a famous pastry chef for that country and prepare a short presentation about that person
Cheers

You could try watching cookery videos on YouTube - they have to make notes and then explain the recipe and methods and equipment to their classmates in a presentation. Look for Mary Berry, Lorraine Pascale or Rachael Ray to start with. |
