Guess My Mystery Food?

Today the students finished presenting their mystery food descriptions to the class. The students used lots of details (colours, shape, smell, size, texture, taste etc.) to describe their food. The rest of the class used the details provided to solve the each mystery item!


Jayson's description was clear and straightforward and we were all familiar with an apple. Davio's description below would impress the finest food reviewer... Cameron figured it out but we were all stumped as to what this healthy snack is called...


Alivia taught us about a traditional Ghanaian dish that her Grandmother makes. Her description inspired us to Google it and find out more about Banku. It is a mixture of fermented corn and cassava dough that's cooked in hot water and served with soup or stew.


Katherine's interesting description of Durian, a fruit that grows in Southeast Asia led us to discover that it is considered to be the world's smelliest fruit! In fact, it is so strong smelling that it has been banned from public transportation and certain hotels in Southeast Asia! 


It was great fun to learn about these international foods as well as to use our detective skills to solve the mysteries of foods we know!
