We saw a few cross-genre translations into recipes, I had to do the opposite. I decided to take my recipe and turn it into a story. My story shares how to make cinnamon buns using yeast. This was a really fun exercise that I would absolutely use in my class one day. Working in groups students could create a story about the recipe, take it to an elementary buddy read the story and invite them back later to cook from the book. I would like to thank Keynote (where I did the drawing) and Pages (where I found a story book layout) because I don’t necessarily consider myself a writer or a drawer.
One thing that I will say was hard about this exercise was having to keep the technical aspect while keeping it light and accessible for kids.
This is a link to the book if your interested in a further read.
