“Family Recipes a la Emoni”
Students will bring one of their favorite recipes and rewrite it in Emoni’s style.
Emoni includes three recipes at the beginning of each section. Notice the instructions that teach the reader about Emoni, such as when she writes, “Keep on the stove for the duration of three listens to a Cardi B song.” (Emoni’s “No Use Crying Over Spilled Strawberry Milk” Recipe)
Teaching Suggestion: Students may have an important family recipe or may bring a recipe for a meal they like.
