Food Sorting By: The Fast Cheetahs

Learning About Food

By Ms. Bo’s Fast Cheetahs

First, we looked at a pile of food.

Then we each picked pieces of food.

We each stood up and explained to the class what food we had.

Next we wondered what the foods had in common. We wanted to put them into groups that made sense.

These are the groups that we came up with……..

A ‘Milk’ group,

a ‘Soft Food’ group,

a ‘Bread’ group,

a ‘Fruit’ group,

a ‘Yellow Food’ group,

a ‘Vegetables’ group.

And an ‘I don’t know’ group.

So then we went back to look at each group again. We wanted to see if there were problems within any of our groupings.

After switching some foods around we noticed we did have some problems.

We tried rearranging into new groups again.

Next we realized some of those foods had something in common!!!

Finally we agreed on 6 groups, but decided they could change as we learned more.

STAY TUNED…….
