Chinese, Please! Lesson Plans
At Raddish, we believe the kitchen is the tastiest place to learn! And Raddish is a terrific supplement to your homeschool curriculum. Subscribe to Raddish for a FREE lesson plan each month (delivered via our Shopping List email). Each lesson plan divides your kit into 3, 45-90 minute lessons you can use and adapt to support your homeschool study, pre-k through middle school.
