Pizza Hut and Healthy Snacks May be sung as Rounds

MUSIC

Task

To add different dynamic levels to different sections of the song.

To learn to clap the beat and rhythm of the song.

To sing the song as a two-part round.

Lead Up

Learn to sing the song using different actions to represent each of the fast food

places mentioned.

Collect the logos of each of the three fast food outlets.

Activities

Dynamics

Select different dynamic levels for each phrase, eg.

A Pizza Hut = Medium (mezzo forte)

Kentucky Fried Chicken = Soft (piano)

McDonalds = Loud (forte)

Using the logos and a different dynamic level, written on three cards, have children

match the dynamic level with each logo, and use these to indicate how loudly or softly

the rest of the class should sing each line of the song.

Duration (Beat / Rhythm)

Have the class form a circle. Draw an imaginary line dividing the circle in half. As they

sing the song, have the children on one side of the circle clap the beat, and the children

on the other side of the circle clap the rhythm of the song.

Now have them walk to the beat around the circle, (anti-clockwise), changing from

clapping the beat (or rhythm) as they cross the imaginary line.

Structure

When children can confidently sing the song, have them divide into two sections and

sing the song as a round in two parts.

Have them create their own 'food' song to this tune and add actions. Encourage them

to use healthy foods in their song!

Resources

Logos for McDonalds, Kentucky Fried Chicken and the Pizza Hut.

Cards with different dynamic levels marked on them

Cassette of song

DRAMA

Task

To use basic elements to make drama.

Lead Up

View various commercials advertising KFC, McDonalds, Pizza Hut etc.

Activities

Children are to write a new script, design different props, supply appropriate costumes,

etc. and redesign a NEW commercial for eating healthy food, using elements of drama

seen in the viewed commercials.

Rehearse, and, if possible, video results.

Resources

Video clips of food commercials

VCR

Video Camera

VISUAL ARTS

Task

To use images from everyday commercial illustrations, advertisements and symbols to

create art.

Lead Up

After brainstorming about food outlets the students are familiar with, recognise which

are most known and why. Discuss what commercial art components are adopted to sell

this outlet, eg. symbol awareness in magazines, on television, billboards, brochures and

packaging, etc.

Activities

Tessellation

Examples of food outlet packaging and advertising are collected and analysed.

Students recreate that logo on paper via direct drawing or create their own logo for a

different food.

By reducing or enlarging the symbol by hand or on the photocopier students repeat the

pattern across the page until it is completely filled. Tessellation, or overlapping, may

be techniques utilised to gain the most effective presentation. The repetitiveness can

be interpreted as mass production.

All lettering, symbols and colours, should be included, though simplified if necessary.

Completed works can be coloured appropriately (with crayon, texta, pencil or paint) or

the scene can be distorted by purposely selecting opposite colours on the colour wheel,

from those of the original logo.

Note: Andy Warhol's (1930-1987) work as a pop artist is great for stimulation.

3D Replicas

Have children develop and advertise three-dimensional replicas of the healthy food

products.

Resources

Paper, paint, textas, crayons

Rulers

Advertisements and / or packaging of food outlets and healthy food products.
