Resources in English

Examples of menus, photographs and descriptions of food our children eat at English schools.

Litton School - what we have for our dinner.

The children took photos of their school dinners for a week. They then made them in to powerpoint pages and labelled all the food items. They also added photos of themselves eating dinner.

Recursos didácticos

Ejemplos de menús, fotografías y descripciones de comidas de colegios españoles. De esta manera los participantes españoles pueden participar más facilmente. Nos gustaría hacer esta sección en español. Cada profesor y alumno será así capaz de navegar y contribuir en su propia lengua. Por favor, siéntanse libres de corregir la ortografía o la gramática y animen a sus colegas y alumnos a participar en este portal.

This example of Spanish school dinners has been sent by María José Sierras. It is interesting to note the nutritional breakdown of each meal is included as well as a suggestion for parents for what could be served for dinner each night.

Resources in other Languages

Please feel free to make a new section of resources in any other language. Add a project stage and translate the description into your own language to create your section.

There is a project called Eating is believing, and on this project are the following links which I'm sure would be of interest to members of this project as well.

Those who are interested in dinner, might also be interested in breakfast?
