Food Tasting Festival

Our Inquiry this term is Fuelled for Life and we have been learning about healthy eating. Room 2 has been learning about why fruits and vegetables are healthy for us.

We had our school's Food Tasting Festival last night and Room 2 made smoothies for people to taste.
We decided in our vitamin/mineral groups what we wanted to put in our smoothies.

The Vitamin A group made smoothies that had a lot of vitamin A with carrots and mangos.
The Vitamin B1 group made smoothies that had a lot of vitamin B1 with broccoli, orange and pomegranates.
The Vitamin C group made smoothies that had a lot of vitamin C with strawberries and kiwifruit.
The Calcium group made smoothies that had a lot of calcium with kiwifruit and oranges.

Tuakana/Teina - Healthy Eating

We had Tuakana/Teina day today and we made some artwork about our inquiry with our buddies. Our buddies helped us find healthy food and cut them out of magazines. We made colourful stomachs and glued our healthy food onto our stomachs. We glued our faces onto the stomachs and made arms and legs. We had a lot of fun making these with our buddies!
