Here in Western Massachusetts we are beginning to
develop an Integrated Curriculum as part of a WIA 
Incentive grant. The goal is to integrate work readiness,
culinary vocational skills and ABE (reading, writing, math) 
skills for older youth between the ages of 16 - 21.

Most of the classroom material used by the local Voc. Tech
schools are geared for the 9 - 12 reading level. We are 
hoping to locate curriculum materials and lesson plans
for the pre-GED levels (5 - 8) on such topics as...
*** overview of the food service / Hospitality industry
*** safety, sanitation and personal hygiene
*** basic cooking principles and methods
*** planning meals and nutrition
*** weights and measures

If any of you fine members of this listserv are familiar with
 such materials or know of another ABE-WorkPlace program
 that has attempted a similar project focused on food service
and culinary arts .... we sure could use the help.
