International Kids Cooking Show



Whilst talking to my new friend Wes at the teacher conference I discovered he has a daughter excited about the possibility of making a cooking show. I wondered if any of you are interested in cooking. I certainly love cooking and so does Miss Freeman.
Have you watched Jamie Oliver's highly educational cooking shows? He is brilliant and has a social conscience as well.
I propose that if we can find suitable "hosts" and maybe use our school tv studio or cooking room, we could record brief cooking shows and share them online somehow. We could set up a cooking show internationally and get other kids from around the world and NZ to contribute. I bet Teaching Sagittarian's kids in Thailand would be interested. Perhaps each segment could be designed to share local cooking specialities?
What do you think?

Teaching Sagittarian

Our friend Chrissy is teaching in Thailand and has a cool educational blog called "Teaching Sagittarian". We all know sagittarians are super cool people, but Chrissy is also a great educator and user of ICT. She was even beamed in live to our keynote speaker's address via skype where she joined in virtually and recorded our version of "Matt's dance", which we performed as a warmup flashmob event set up by AllanahK.
If you're a teacher you might want to check out Chrissy's blog. The dance is shown there, although it's a bit fuzzy. Thankfully I don't think you can see me.
