Food And Farming

[AnonyMouse_379]

Hi all

 

I am just after a few ideas....

 

A colleague wants to do the topic of food and farming with our recepetion classes in the summer term..... a long way off I know...

 

However...

 

Have any of you wise people done this as a topic?

Can you suggest any good activities?

Any good books?

 

Just to give me a nudge in the right direction... and save us looking at a blank piece of paper.

We are aware that it is the year of food and farming and of the related website for KS1+.

For anyone that is interested.

Thanks in advance.

There is a big book called 'I love animals' which is good (sorry can't remember author); There's always 'Old MacDonald had a farm' which could act as a stimulus along with, 'the farmer's in his den'-hope this helps
