Nutrition activities

This year we've got a new subject, Science in English, once a week.

This term we are studying nutrition. We are learning about the food pyramid, what the nutrients are, what we have to eat to be healthy, how to make a healthy menu…

We do different activities in groups. At the beginning of the unit we tried to make a mind map to show what we knew about nutrition. We didn’t know much about nutrition, so we didn’t make it very well.

Nutrition is very important for our lives and we like learning about it. We thought that Science in English was going to be very difficult but it isn’t. We haven’t got a text book and the activities are funny and we sometimes use the computers.

In another activity we had to design a menu for two people during a week. We used magazines to know the price of the food. The menu had to be healthy and balanced. It seemed an easy activity but it wasn't. We liked the activity.
