Bring the measuring equipment and containers needed. • 3. Staple replacements are in the back room. (flour, sugar, etc.) Ask for help.

  7. 4. Soap dispensers, Simple Green spray and flour/sugar canisters are always left 2/3 of the way full; refill when needed. • 5. Use the garbage cans in the lab. They can be found in between two lab stations.

Let your teacher know if you need an extra job. • 10. Listening to headphones or using your phone during labs is prohibited. • 11. When preparing a meal most of the time we will stand and eat, but make sure most of the dishes are done before you eat.

Plastic wrap, baggies and foil are in front of the room in the “green bin”; wrap any food ingredients not used and return to the supply table. Do not throw away extrafood ingredients unless instructed by the teacher.
