Yes! To provide teachers with flexible options, EcoCooks has been developed with multiple modules that can be taken independently, as a series, back-to-back, or spaced throughout the year.

Your first module will be 4 workshops long and each additional module is 3 more workshops. (So for example: 1 module = 4 workshops, 2 modules = 7 workshops, 3 modules =10 workshops, and all 4 modules = 13 workshops). Each workshop is designed to be about 60 minutes (elementary) or 70 minutes (secondary), however, we do our best to work with teachers to accommodate alternate delivery requests.

The program is connected most strongly to:

• Elementary: Science, Social Studies, Language Arts, Math, Applied Design, Skills, health, and Technologies

• Secondary: Science, Social Studies, Food Studies (ADST / CTS / CTF), and Career & Life Skills

Since we will be cooking and preparing food with students, the final workshop is best run in a classroom with access to food preparation facilities (like a Food Studies room set-up), however; we can adapt the workshop for classrooms without a kitchen. 

EcoCooks is dedicated to providing economically accessible programs that can be supported financially through our Contribute-What-You-Can Model. We understand the financial challenges many schools and educators face and our mission is to make our programs accessible to all, regardless of budget constraints. With this funding model, you can choose an amount that works for your budget, even if that number is 0, ensuring that all students can benefit from our offerings. Regardless of the amount you donate, the quality and content of our programs will remain consistently high and booking prioritization will remain completely equal.

We believe that all youth should have the opportunity to take part in inspiring environmental education programs. As such, EcoCooks is dedicated to providing economically accessible programs that are appropriate for youth with diverse physical and neuro-emotional learning needs as well as English language learners. Have a special request? Note it in the registration form or contact booking@elements-society.org.
