  2. Franz Family Bakery Bakery Tours About the tour: The tour consists of a brief history of the Franz Family Bakeries and a half hour tour of our facility. Students will enjoy a snack of bread, butter and apple juice, and gift bags to take home. For elementary school tours there is an interactive learning center with books to read and mind teaser work sheets.

  3. Health Sciences – Nutrition, labeling • Science – Chemistry involved in bread making, wheat production • Math – Commercial bread production process, shipping, consumer rates, sales • Social Studies – We all eat bread! Connect to curriculum!

  4. This is a wonderful resource for teachers to use because it can be applied to all ages and be altered to fit a variety of curriculum topics. It is conveniently located in the Seattle metro area and can be accessed via public bus transportation. The tour is an excellent way to enhance the curriculum and make learning more authentic. Some possible lesson ideas include: -Students will study economics by examining a real business. By examining the bakery, students will learn and experience important concepts such as the marketplace, price, production, goods, human and natural resources, profit, etc. -Students will study culture, geography, and the community by looking at how bread is a staple food for many cultures and how cultures create their own form of it. Students can study the different ways people make bread. Going to the bread factory would enhance this part of the curriculum. -Students will study the bread making process and the science behind it. Students will practice skills such as making a chart to compare different breads. Students will practice writing skills such as writing instructions (ex: bread recipe). Take advantage of this resource!
