At school we have a diningroom where lunch is cooked everyday and quite a lot of students have lunch at school after the lessons (14:00-16:00). There are also lots of students who go home for lunch. In Spain we usually have lunch when school finishes.
This is our school menu for January. We have translated the menu for this week.
As a part of our work in Science (in English), in Year 4 we will keep a record of the food we eat in a week and we will think if it's adequate, balanced and complete because we will learn about healthy diets.
Monday 19th : Rice with tomato sauce + sausages and french fries + fruit
Tuesday 20th: Beans + stuffed eggs + fruit
Wednesday 21st: Potatoes with ribs + fish with salad + fruit
Thursday 22nd : "cocido" (chickpeas stew) + yoghurt
Friday 23th: pasta carbonara + fish and salad + fruit
This is a typical Spanish winter food, cocido, a kind of stew with chickpeas, carrots, meat, etc...It's usually served with a noodle soup first. Children usually like it.
We took a vote and half of us decided we would like to try the cocido and half of us thought we did not like the look of it. We would like to know how to pronounce the work though.
ResponderEliminarOops! We meant 'word' not 'work'.
ResponderEliminarSo, don't you eat chickpeas?
