We began our unit on nutrition with the question. "Where do we buy our food?" Some children mentioned: Shop Rite, Glatt Express, Pathmark and Stop and Shop. The next question was. "How do these stores get their food?" We looked at a map of the United States and the World and discovered that food comes from all over. The food is shipped by planes, and train from farms to warehouses, and then brought by truck to stores. The children designed their own warehouses and supermarkets. We turned our kitchen area into a supermarket, which we named the Makolet.
