Eggs Around the World + Common Core Writing

Pilot Light’s first Food Education Standard is “Food Connects Us to Each Other.” Food often reflects our likes and dislikes, our cultures and ethnicities, and what our family or friends eat. By sharing food with others, we connect as humans and learn more about one another’s experiences and identities.

In this Family Meal Video and Lesson, we learn about how eggs are often prepared by people in three different countries. The Family Meal Lesson Plan encourages children in grades 4-12 to write a story about a time in which food provided an opportunity to connect to another person and learn something new.
