Preparing for a Field Trip

The lesson “Preparing for a Field Trip” gives children the opportunity to prepare to visit and interact with a local food provider. The children will prepare questions for the provider in order to identify the process that a local provider must go through in order to prepare and sell food in the community. This experience is designed to educate the children on the details of an income-generating activity. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 6-8 years, and is the 21st lesson in the 2nd Year “Cook a Local Meal” unit.
