Part of Lesson Plan: Potato Leek Soup

Activity Overview / Details

Near the end of your class period tell each group of students that as they finish their soup, they will need to provide you with a small sample for assessment.  Taste it and complete the rubric for each sample and the student participants.  I like to give the rubric to each group at the beginning of the lab.  I find that students achieve better when the have the rubric ahead of time.  I also complete the rubric in front of the group of students.  I go over each item and ask for their input.  This helps the students improve their work even on later lab days as many of the assessed items are the same each time.
