2011 NEXT STEPS CIGS TRAINING PROGRAM AT
WOODSON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
Through a partnership between The Vigor Consortium and the Excel After-School Program, NEXT
Steps provides CIGS Training to 5th graders at Woodson Elementary School.
To help the kids decide
wanted to grow, the
wanted to grow, the
kids helped NEXT
Steps set up the Spice
It Up! tasting station.

We introduced the kids
to over 34 spices --
many of which they had
never heard of or seen
before (including honey
and Worcestershire
sauce).

The kids were given the
name and a brief
history of the spice,
smelled their aromas
and then tasted them.
Some of the more
memorable spices
sampled were nutmeg,
cinnamon, cardamom,
lemon zest, spearmint,
and minced garlic.

Needless to say, we
ended the year with a
bang!
