VEGETABLE GARDEN
PRIMARY SCHOOL
Our garden is hosting a vegetable garden made by the pupils. The focus was to discover the seasonality of vegetables, and also that is very important to know what we eat. We saw the growth of the vegetables, from the seed to the fruit.
ALL AROUND THE WORLD… WITH FOOD!
PRIMARY SCHOOL
Every day we eat in our school kitchen. With this project pupils could discover what other people eat. We tried chinese food, american food, turkish food and swedish food, too! Before eating these meals, we saw some videos that explained how they were made.
CHANGING BREAKFAST
PRIMARY SCHOOL
The class took part of a contest, where the goal was to describe how breakfast changed for people. We decided to recreate the different kind of italian families during our history. In this way, pupils dressed up with some special clothes.
This could help us to understand how breakfast changes, but also how is important never decreases. In order to do this each student asked to his parents and his grandparents what they eat for breakfast when the were eight years old.
The students learned that the leitmotiv of italian breakfast is the milk.
FOOD AND ART
PRIMARY SCHOOL
The Project was developed at the Magnani Rocca, a museum were pupils could see some famous painting. We focused on Giorgio Morandi, an italian painter. The final product was to reproduce his paintings, and we made it in a wonderful place with peacocks and giant trees.
THE RESEARCH IN BREAKFAST
PRIMARY SCHOOL
Two hours were dedicated to scientific experiments with food. Like true scientists, pupils investigated some drinks discovering how there are made and also what kind of substances are contained in them. They could see what reactions there are in the relationship with materials.
TEACHERS OF TASTING
PRIMARY SCHOOL
A “teacher of tasting” came in our class, and made a lot of experiments in order to show how much food is important for us. We made two lessons: in the first one pupils discovered that during the day we need to eat food with five different colours (red, orange, green, purple, white). This can help our body to grow in a right way and to increase our immune system defences.
During the second lesson students could understand how much water in contained in what we eat, using the “water man”.
A GOOD SNACK
SECONDARY SCHOOL
The project “ A GOOD SNACK” aims to sensitise pupils to social and cultural problems. In this way, those problems are faced thanks to the active effort of the students and of their families.
In a determined snack pause, previously arranged, school students don’t bring their snack with them because they are invited to buy it at school. The snacks are prepared by some classes who are in charge also to manage the selling and buying actions.
In this second term, the school has organized a specific lesson in order to reflect and think together with students on which kind of snack could be more suitable for the students and to have a healthy and well-balanced snack.
So, 24 students, 8 students each from the three 3rd class of the school involved in the project (3A, 3D, 3F) have attended a laboratory hold by MADEGUS.
During this laboratory, the students had the chance to learn the main basis of an healthy snack and they got some simple but tasty recipes!
ATHLETES BREAKFAST
SECONDARY SCHOOL
A special lesson, with a nutrition expert, to learn the secrets of a breakfast to face tough activities and sportive competition.
FOOD FUNCTION
SECONDARY SCHOOL
During the regulary time lesson technology and science teachers have deepen some important themes, such as:
– nutrients in food
– the food function, concerning in particular the plastic and energy function
– the food pyramid
The students, working in small groups and helped by their teachers, have made some poster/boards on these themes.
Each group after the work explained the topic to other students of the class.
These boards/posters hand painted and hand written were exposed during the student mobility week.
