So come on, follow my hands & get cooking.
Everyday recipes made simple, even for the absolute beginner.
Just Look and Cook has been an massive hit with the students here at IT Sligo. The book is detailed but very easy to follow and I believe that it is a must have for any student heading away to college for the first time.
The students in our Centre have found Just Look and Cook a very attractive book when I showed it to them. The clear photos and step by step methods make it very easy to understand and the shopping list simplifies purchasing what is needed. We are planning a ‘Life after Youthreach’ Summer Programme and as it is so good I intend to use it more fully as a practical guide to our learners who are moving on to the Big World!!! My daughter, a student in London, has found it very helpful for herself and fellow students who have English as a second language and also for those who do not have a weighing scales.
As a paediatric OT I found this book an excellent resource for teaching independent skills for children with Autism. It develops many skills in relation to following the sequence of a task and concentration. Organisational skills and confidence are also improved with the help of the clear visual steps. The shopping lists are a great idea and helps reduce anxieties when starting to learn a new skill. Overall this book is great for teaching a wide range of life skills that will be important for future independence and of course it’s fun.
