What Parts of a Plant Do We Eat?

Let's Get Creative! **Vege Man** Have you seen the advertisement on TV by Rolf Harris? Rolf Harris is encouraging us to eat 5 serves of vegetables and 3 serves of fruit a day. He has made up some funny pictures using fruit and vegetables. Let’s take a look and then make our own faces on this web-site. [] Click and drag fruit and vegetables to create a face

Summer **

Look at this painting ‘Summer’ by Giuseppe Arcimboldo which was painted in 1573. Click on the picture to see a larger version. The painting is about 450 years old! Can you work out what vegetables are in the painting? Have a go at working out what you can find using this activity sheet. [|click and drag arcimboldo.doc] In Art today, we will draw pictures of fruit and vegetables. Your task is to cut out the pictures and use them to make a collage. Your collage will look like a face. After you have completed your vegetable man face, we will publish them on our blog.

**Challenge** Make a salad using every part of a plant (leaf, root, stem, flower, fruit, seeds and nuts). Write the ingredients for your salad and record what part of the plant you have used.  return to Process Page
