Juliana Pearson Milk Moustache Photo Brochure Basic Agriculture Concepts: • Calcium, vitamins A & D, riboflavin, protein, phosphorus, magnesium, carbohydrates and potassium are all nutrients found in milk. • Milk helps build strong teeth and bones. Objective: • The learner will create a milk moustache photo brochure. • The learner will examine numerous brochures for examples of expository writing. • The learner will add expository writing to their milk brochure (QPA outcome). Materials: • 1 gallon vanilla ice cream • 1 half gallon milk • Dixie cups • Polaroid camera with film • paper trifolded for brochures Procedure: • Make the milk mustache mixture by mixing 3 parts ice cream with 1 part milk. • Give each child some of the mixture in a Dixie cup. • Have them hold the cup up to their mouth and tip their cup back while keeping their head still. • Make sure they keep their mouths closed as they “drink on their moustaches.” • Take a Polaroid picture of each child. Allow them to finish their moustache mixture after the photos are taken. • Have each child glue their picture on the front on a blank brochure. Closure: Milk is an important component of daily nutrition. Milk provides many nutrients and is one of the safest foods you can eat. In the dairy plant, human hands never touch it. That is why milk stays very pure and fresh tasting. Humans need at least 3 servings of milk each day. Assessment: Remembering that expository writing is nonfiction, use your Dairy Council information packet to locate five facts about milk. Copy these facts on to your milk moustache brochure. Remember to use you best handwriting! Then add a caption underneath your milk moustache picture. The caption should tell why you drink milk.
