Students Grow Their Own Lunch

Hi students, do you know what most students at school are thinking about in the morning? Of course, it's lunchtime! 你知道學生早上到學校之後，都在想甚麼呢？當然是午餐要吃甚麼呢！ Every day, hungry students need to eat. Who makes your lunch? Maybe your family makes it, or maybe the school's cook. 肚子餓的學生每天都得吃飯，可是是誰做他們的午餐？ In some elementary schools, children only eat fast food, like hamburgers and french fries. 有一些學校的學生只吃速食，比如不健康的漢堡跟薯條。 Yuck! That's not good for you! In other schools, students can make lunch by themselves, and eat healthy. They are helped by a new program called "Chefs in Schools". 在其他的學校，有一個新社團幫學生自己做午餐，吃得健康。 The program helps elementary students plant vegetable gardens. The students take care of their garden every day. 這個社團就是幫這些學生們自己種菜，每天照顧菜園。 After lots of sunlight, water, love and care, their vegetables are ready to eat! Students cook them into delicious meals. They even grow wheat, and use it to bake bread. It makes the students happy and strong. 學生們把蔬菜煮成可口的飯菜。他們還種麥子，用它來做自己的麵包。 What they don't use, they give to others in the neighborhood. 學生也會把蔬菜給附近的鄰居。 When those children grow up, they will know how to feed themselves, their families, and their friends. 孩子們長大以後，就知道如何養活自己、家人，還有朋友！ If children learn to make healthy food, they will also learn to help themselves and others. ________________________________ Vocabulary 小學生吃自己種、自己烹調的食物，午餐變得更有趣。 1. garden 花園 My elementary school has a vegetable garden. 我的小學有一座菜園。 What do you grow? 你種什麼呢？ Tomato and green pepper. 番茄和青椒。 2. take care of 照顧 Do you know how to take care of the plants? 你知道怎麼照顧那些植物嗎？ Of course, they just need sunlight and water. 當然，它們只需要陽光和水。 3. hungry 飢餓的 All this talk is making me hungry. 所有這些話讓我餓了。 What should we have? 我們吃什麼好？ Hamburgers and fries? 漢堡薯條？ No!
