Food for Love - An end to our Heroes inquiry

We decided as a class that it would be a nice way to finish our unit by taking some of our heroes qualities and reflecting them ourselves. In Wanaka we have a company who donates home cooked meals to those in need.

I split my kids into 5 groups and asked them to decide on a recipe to cook. They then all decide on an ingredient to contribute.

During week 10 I had 5 parents volunteer to come in and assist the kids with cooking the recipe.

Once completed they packaged them up nicely and we sent them off to Food for Love. We got a really nice mention on their Facebook page.

Over the course of the week we had many rich discussions about the importance of giving to others (especially in the world we live today). After our donation I had the class reflect on their learning.
