Teacher’s presentation
With a group of children find some central topic and build a conversation around it. For example, the arrival of potatoes for lunch. One can continue like this: “Where do potatoes come from?” “Who brought them?” “How did he bring them?”“Why?” and so on. This gives the cycle of development, use and purpose of natural materials and the way in which they are made use of or produced.
