The following Year 5 ‘Farm to Plate’ themed activity ideas have been developed to help your students investigate how dairy foods form their everyday diet. All of these activity ideas are linked to the Australian Curriculum learning areas of English, Science, and Humanities and Social Sciences.
Students will investigate the sustainable practices that are carried out on dairy farms to care for animals and the environment.
In addition to this, students will participate in a debate on the importance of dairy foods in the diet. All of these activity ideas are linked to the Australian Curriculum learning areas of English, Science, and Humanities and Social Sciences.
The activities provided can be used as stand-alone teaching ideas, incorporated into an existing program or used to support other inquiry units and resources found on the Discover Dairy website.
