MAKANAN DAN MASAKAN – FOOD AND COOKING 

This term, Year 7 students learnt about Indonesian food, tastes and cooking. In groups, they practised and learnt the ingredients and cooking steps of their favourite food. They also practised describing the tastes of foods in Indonesian. Students then prepared these foods at home and recorded their cooking with instructions in Indonesian. They did amazing work! Attached are examples of students’ cooking videos and feedback. 

Student feedback:
