Mini Project 5 - My Food House Chart

Hello everybody! It's been a while since the last post. Hope you're all doing fine :)

Here's a fun activity which was done with a group of 10-year-olds. At the end of the topic about food (A Healthy Balanced Diet), we thought of getting them to recap on the different types of food and beverages they've learnt by creating a food house chart.  

Here's the template to create the chart. Credit goes to the owner of the original template :)

There are a few ways pupils can create the content, depending on the title they would like to give it, such as: 

- My Favourite Food House Chart

- My Favourite Beverage House Chart

- My Healthy Food House Chart

Once they have finished drawing and labelling (they can also opt to google the photos and paste them), pupils cut the house parts and join them to make the chart. 

While pupils do gallery walk to look at their friend's house charts, they are given record sheets to note if any of their friends share similar favourite food or drinks. After that, they can pair up to share what they've learnt from the gallery walk.

What are the benefits? All four language skills are incorporated in this mini project as pupils need to: 

1) Listen to the instructions given to complete the house chart as well as listen to what was shared at the end of the gallery walk. 

2) Talk about who has similar favourites. 

3) Read the food and drink labels from the chart to make meaning of the pictures.  

4) Write and spell the labels correctly and in legible print.  

5) Draw pictures and create the house chart creatively.

6) Do a gallery walk to find out what others have drawn and complete the record sheet.
