Welcome to Global Foods!

Hey, everybody, welcome to your second semester class.

Global foods.

I am so happy to have you here with me

this year.

In case you don't know, my name is Mrs Hall.

I am in my third year teaching here at Fairborn

High School.

Before this, I taught at Springfield High School, and prior

to that, I worked in college administration and student affairs.

So I've worked at a couple of different colleges and

universities before coming into teaching.

Most of you already know me because you have to

have taken culinary fundamentals before you could take global foods.

And most of you have taken that with me.

If for some reason you have not taken culinary fundamentals,

don't stress about it.

We could talk about it on our first day in

person, and we should be able to keep you in

the class.

I'm really excited to see so many familiar faces back

in the classroom because I have really missed seeing and

interacting with students.

And I can't wait Thio be around people who I

already know and to continue to build those relationships in

case you're unaware.

Um, I use she her pronounce.

This means that when you refer to me use the

pronounce, she or her.

So if you're talking about me to someone else, you're

like, Hey, where did she go or um Oh, yeah,

I know her.

I think normalizing and talking about our pronouns when we

meet someone is really important because it helps lead Thio,

not miss Gen Doring people and just making sure that

we're all on the same page.

I will be asking you for your personal pronouns later

today. A little bit about me.

I live in Yellow Springs with my husband, Ben, and

our son Arthur.

Arthur is now 3.5 years old.

He's super fun.

You can see in this picture he loves Paul patrol

on and just lots of different things.

So I'm sure you'll hear lots about Arthur this school

year in my free time.

I love knitting and sewing, and this is a stack

of quilts that I made for family members for Christmas.

Uh, if you had me when I started doing a

mental health days, I bring in a lot of quotes

that I made on DWI.

Get toe, hang out and relax in the classroom, using

those quilts, hoping we could bring back mental health days

this year.

But even if we don't, we will be working some

mental health strategies into our class throughout the semester.

This is my classroom classroom 30 to hopefully you're familiar

with it.

If not, the classroom is right off the cafeteria, and

it's easy to find it is different than other classrooms

because we do have six kitchens in here, you will

be cooking in global foods, and you will be assigned

one of the different colored kitchens.

We will be utilizing Google Classroom throughout the semester, so

even if we are in person, I will still be

posting all information and assignments in Google Classroom.

That way, if you have to be out for any

reason, you can easily access the information.

Plus, the school is really trying to limit the amount

of paper that we're getting back and forth.

So using electronic resource is one helps to limit the

amount of paper being shared among people, and number two

is better for our environment.

So check Google classroom frequently.

If you're watching this video, I know you have already

gotten into our classroom, so that's what's really important there

are two things that I need for you to complete

today. The first is a class introduction survey.

This is for me to get to know you a

little bit better and learn about your learning styles.

And if you have any allergies, that's very important.

When we're taking a cooking class, I'm gonna ask you

for your name and your preferred name.

So if there's a nickname you like to go by

like your name is Rebecca and you go by Becky,

um Or maybe you go by your middle name or

you go by a different name altogether.

Just let me know what that ISS.

I'm also going to ask you for your pronouns, which

would either be you use she her You used a

them or you use he him.

Okay, easy question.

I just want you to be aware that it's there.

After you complete the class introduction survey.

I'm gonna ask you to complete this culinary home inventory.

I know it says culinary, but it's the same for

global foods.

Um, this is some data that I need to collect

in case for some reason, we are sent home in

the middle of the semester um I will want you

to complete some at home labs, and I will be

able to supply you with some Resource is if you

don't have them.

But if you already have, like, measuring cups and measuring

spoons at home, I'm asking for that input now so

that I would have less that I would need to

buy. Okay, So you're gonna fill out this culinary home

inventory survey?

I'm hoping that will be in person for the whole

semester, and this won't be a problem.

Finally. Don't forget, Monday is a virtual learning day.

This means you will not be coming to the school

on Monday.

Instead, you're going to stay at home and you're gonna

log on during your class, period, Um, for global foods,

so you can easily find the link to our Google

meat on our Google classroom.

Okay, It's on that first age and you'll join us

that way.

If you do not remember the schedule for those Monday's

no worries, I have the schedule posted under the announcements

tab in Google classrooms.

You can easily access the schedule for Monday.

So again, I will see you right here on the

Google meet on Monday.

I can't wait to see your shining faces and to

be with you in person next week.

Oh,

Welcome to Global Foods!
