Noisy Food

When you’re munching crunchy apples

 Or you’re slurping up your soup,

When you’re eating crackly crisps

All on our own or in a group,

When you’re crunching up your cornflakes

Or you’re popping bubblegum,

Or you’re sucking at an orange

With such squelches that your mum

Says. ‘Can’t you eat more quickly,

That noise is rather rude!’

It’s then you say, ‘It’s not my fault.

I’m eating noisy food.’

Marian Swinger

Yummy Circles

Steps:
1. Divide pupils into groups of six. Give each pupil a placard (apple, orange, bubble gum,
cornflakes, crackers and soup).

2. Draw a big circle on the floor followed by six smaller circles around the big circle (see the
picture below).

3. Label each of the six circles as follows:

4. Call out the first group and tell them to stand in the centre circle.

5. Call out the name of one food.

6. The pupil whose food is called out jumps into the correct small circle.
Example: When the teachers says apple, the pupil with the ‘apple’ placard jumps into the
‘munching’ circle. This goes on until the big circle is empty.

7. When all the groups have finished playing the game, pupils with the same food name get
together. They can stand together in the small circles.
Example: All ‘apples’ get together and stand in the ‘munching’ circle.
8. Each group has to create a two line cheer/chanting to describe their food.

Example:
Apple, apple, crunchy apple
Yummy, munchy, crunchy apple.
