Students will launch the cultural heritage cookbook project by making strawberry-banana smoothies, practicing how to read and follow a visual recipe, listening to Morse High School culinary students explain safe kitchen routines and family food connections, and sharing an initial food memory or hope for the cookbook.

Students will gather recipe stories and usability feedback from classmates and Morse High School partners, organize what they learn into simple empathy artifacts, and use evidence from interviews and testing to draft a shared How Might We statement for the class cookbook.

Students will turn their interview notes, recipe stories, and early drafts into testable cookbook page and cover prototypes, gather feedback from classmates and Morse High School partners, and complete two revision cycles so their cookbook materials are clearer, more accurate, and easier for young readers to use.

Students will present their class cookbook and team tri-folds to families and Morse High School partners, explain how feedback improved their recipe pages, demonstrate that they can read and follow recipe directions, and share a brief reflection about family food traditions, teamwork, and learning.
