Getting Oriented to a New Curriculum

Chat Out: What is the most important thing you do to prepare to teach a new curriculum?

8/12/2019

□ For each lesson activity – identify:

□ Steps to complete the activity

•Set up six food packages and number them

•Hand out paper and pencils• Instruct students to write down the content of each container

•Open containers and check answers•Discussion

Food Assumptions: 1. Preparation: Set up six packages of food on a table or against a wall. Number each package 1 – 6. Five out of the six should contain something other than what they advertise. (For example: Macaroni shells in a cereal box, beans in an empty milk carton, sugar in a pasta box, water in a soda bottle. Something that could remain the same would be a canned food like tuna or corn. Use packaging that you have, as long as it is labeled and you can’t see the contents from the outside.)


☑ Steps to complete the activity

☑ Teaching tools (posters, visuals,

models, A/V equipment, etc.)

☑ Space and equipment needed

☑ Are additional materials/visuals

needed

2. Begin by telling students that their first activity will be an easy test. Hand out a piece of paper and a pencil. Give them the following directions, and repeat them if anyone questions the purpose of the test: • Please write down, in order, the content of each container. • There will be no talking until everyone is done with this test.


☑ Supplies (lesson plan may not

specify – pencils, pens, markers, etc.)

8/12/2019

3. After students have finished, check his or her answers by opening up each container one at a time and showing what is actually inside. Ask students why they answered the way they did. Explain that we all make assumptions, or quick guesses, based on information that we receive right away. Our assumptions, however, are not always correct. (One container should have the correct contents inside to show that sometimes we make the right assumption.)

4. Start a discussion with students on how they make decisions about what to eat. What factors do they consider? Do they decide by taste? How food looks? How it smells? What makes them willing to try something new? (Accept all answers.) Explain that people generally like to eat foods that taste good. But how do we know what is in the foods we eat? How do we know that a muffin has carrots in it, or soup has vegetable broth? Is there a way to figure out what is in food, aside from tasting it? And why is it important to know what’s inside our food?


☑ Steps to complete the activity

☑ Supplies (lesson plan may not specify –

pencils, pens, markers, etc.)

☑ Teaching tools (posters, visuals, models,

A/V equipment, etc.)

☑ Space and equipment needed

☑ Methods to actively involve all

participants (if not specified)

☑ Are additional materials/visuals needed
