Introduction
Hi there! I’m glad you’re here. In this project, you will learn to
write about a familiar subject, family recipes! You will learn how
to write in chronological order, as well as write directions and a
story in simple paragraph form. At the end of this project you will
have helped to create a class cookbook!

Within these questions you will write a memory that surrounds the
recipe.

Teacher Notes
I
used the publication help: Read, Write, Think for our cookbook. You
need to physically cut & paste but it has some nice layouts & is
easy to use.
