Year 1 Trip Healthy Diet丨A healthy diet for a healthy life
02 Dec 2019

From Year 1 Teacher Samantha Wang
In Year 1, we learnt how to have a healthy diet! Through this topic, children discovered the process of how food is made and we were able to differentiate between healthy and unhealthy food and how to make healthy choices. We believe that children learn best when they are involved and experience it first-hand so as an extension of this learning, they went to the Westin hotel in Tianjin and made pizza. So what skills can children learn while enjoying cooking? 1 It cultivates mindfulness There is a strict process in cooking, children need to stay focused and pay attention to every detail, otherwise, the food will not turn out as expected. When children are engaged in an activity they like and enjoy it, they have a longer attention span and remain focused. If they miss a step, the final product will not be complete. For example, if they would like to eat chocolate cake or cookies, they have to pay attention to the details to get the best outcome.
