Dear Chapple Room Parents and Friends,
We have had a great start to Term 2. We have already begun
discussing out new unit, Paddock
to Plate and look forward to exploring where our food comes from.
Each day we plan to discuss what we have eaten for lunch, what ingredients
were used and where these food originated. We have had some interesting
discussions this week, after eating chicken casserole, shepherd's pie and tacos.
Where did the food come
from?From Mr Waggenfeller. Leroy
It came from a tray, the one the food came on. Luc
The Langley children had theirs on a tray and we, it came on a plate. Abhi
It came from a shop and then he brought it to our school. Then to café, then to the oven and then he put it on a plate and the people ate it. Oscar
Where did the food come from, before the shops?
It came from the shops. Susannah
Maybe he got it from the kitchen. Ethan
The man delivered it, from the shop. Max
Before school started, me, Lily and Dad drove the Mitsubishi on the farm. It’s Papou’s farm. He has kangaroos and cows and a motorbike. Asterios
Ummm, a farm then the tractor gave it to the shops then a man delivered it to Mr Waggenfeller. Izabella
Eggs we get not from chickens, they’re from the shops. Luc
What is beef and where does it come from?
Pigs! Beef comes from pigs. Samuel
Mr Waggenfeller gets it from the shop. Abhi
A man picks it up from the farm and gives it to the shops. Asterios
Meat does come from pigs. First it comes from the farm, then to the shops, then Mr Waggenfeller puts it on our plate. Christian
Actually, there’s rectangle gardens on farms and they buy the beef from them. I have beef and broccoli and cauliflower and brussell sprouts in my garden at Grandmas. James W
Beef comes from a cow. Asterios
They kill it with a gun or a knife. Then they get the beef from the cow. They can kill it with a knife. Sebastian
They chop its head off. They tie its legs up with a rope so it doesn’t move so they can kill it and get the meat. James W
They chop it in half. Raphael
You know to get milk, first they squeeze the boobies, then they put it in a bucket, then they tip it in a jug and into our cups. Christian
How they get the meat from the cow is they kill it and crunch up the bones and get the meat. Izabella
The
nice way to kill a cow is to make a hole and pull the meat out and then it can
stay alive. Jacob
Its
been an interesting and insightful journey so far. We can’t wait to continue!
We
are also looking forward to the Princesses Tea Party next week! Have a
lovely weekend.
