Large Group Literacy: Food & Nutrition

My Favorite Food Language Chart
Students take turn listing their favorite food using complete sentences.  Teachers write full dictation of each student's sentence.  Can also be altered to a class book in which students also draw a picture of their favorite food.

If You Give a Pig a Pancake Big Book Reading
Big Books are wonderful opportunities to demonstrate tracking print to students.  The if-then statements in the books can pose to opportunities to ask students what the pig will want to do next.  Don't have this title?  That's fine!  Gather up another title that has to do with food and roll.

Pizza Order Cards
Prior to this, we have been practicing with our fingers in the air Numeral Song by Dr. Jean Feldman.  Now we put the numeral song to practice here.  We have asked parents to donate ingredients to make pizza in the classroom this week.  Today, the students will make their pizza orders for making pizza the next day.  Each student has a sheet with pepperoni, cheese, black olives, and mushrooms with lines next to each image.  The students attempt to write the number (between 0-10) of each ingredient that they would like on their pizza.  Name at the top, first thing (no name, how will we make your pizza?).

Little Red Hen retelling using props
I prefer to use the flannel story as that is what I have in my classroom but again, whatever props you can make or find will work out well.
