Turning junk food into healthy food - cooking and learning !

You can always take the way you teach a step further. For example on this lesson where we were suppose to learn how to write a recipe in the 5th grade we decided to try the recipe first and then write it down. And not just learning vocabulary and giving instructions we also learnt how to prepare a healthy pizza. Turning junk food into healthy food was our aim and we achieved it :)
check out the link for the recipe and enjoy the photos.

Healthy food - Healthy life presentation

Healthy food - Healthy life

There is a project in our school about promoting healthy food to students. In the fifth grade we have a lesson on food so we decided to learn the vocabulary and the importance of healthy food by doing something different on the lesson. The students brought all the ingredients and we prepared tasty salads. The students enjoyed while preparing the salads and also while eating them :)
We did a research and created a power point presentation on the nutrition values of all the vegetables that were used in the preparation.

Twinkle, twinkle little bat - Celebrating Halloween

Twinkle, twinkle little bat, how I wonder what you're at.
In a cave away from light, only coming out at night.

Celebrating Halloween - Learning can be fun!

Holidays in our school are always extra fun :)
This year we celebrated yet another Halloween with some pumpkin painting ( since carving can be a bit tricky) and some apple bobbing. Students enjoyed it and so did I :)
