  • Interdisciplinary Learning: Creative Curriculum Planning

    I decided to use the book ‘Hungry Planet: What the World Eats’ (Menzel and D'Aluisio, 2005) as a stimulus for my planning.

As I wanted the plans to build upon the children’s enquiry based learning, I felt that ‘World foods’ would be an interesting topic for them to explore. Although food can be a sensitive topic, through my experience in various schools, I know that year 6 children will be able to build on their prior knowledge and understand values, beliefs and misconceptions. This topic will also develop their curiosity and support the children in making sense of the real world for themselves through tasks such as food tasting and a visit to the local allotment (Pickford, Garner and Jackson, 2013).

For instance, the children ate milk and cookies one day, and cheese crackers another day. An example of lunch would be, milk, chicken fingers, French fries, green beans, and mixed fruit one day, and spaghetti, corn, peaches, and bread and butter another day.

Parents don’t have to completely get rid of fast food, but they should limit going out to eat to once a month. Parents should pack their child’s lunch containing all the main food groups and pack some snacks so they can eat that throughout the day instead of buying snacks for the vending machines. Parents should limit TV and computer time and instead gather the whole family to play outside for at least an hour. Parents should enforce a healthier lifestyle at home so that obesity could be avoided. What children learn at home about eating healthy, exercising and making the right nutritional choices will have an impact on them and affect other aspects later on in life. Focusing on these causes may decrease childhood obesity and lead to a healthier society as a whole.

Students are also encouraged to try the new menu items in hopes of getting them away from the old favorites served in the past, which may have less to do with taste and more to do with familiarity. Food service staff can attend trainings to learn how to season food without salt, how to lower the fat content in meals, and teachers, parents, and others involved with students can model healthy eating. To help encourage this program among children, schools can involve students in menu planning and conduct taste tests to figure out student preferences and expose students to new foods.
