You are what you eat

Related to the topic of our body and the five senses, is the topic of food. Using the moto "You are what you eat", we are working on how food can help you take care of your body.

We're also having a look at the five food groups. In this link there are some games (My Plate Match Game) to learn how many servings you need from each group.

Five senses - taste


Five senses - touch


This is a very basic video I've created for kindergarten and Year 1 and 2 groups. You can find it on Vimeo.
