Narración: Sistema Alimentario

Overview

Para esta actividad, los estudiantes verán videos de la serie ADAPTA sobre un cultivo en Puerto Rico y usarán lo aprendido para explorar cómo los alimentos se mueven a través del sistema alimentario, desde la tierra hasta el plato. Esto les ayudará a reflexionar críticamente sobre el origen de sus alimentos, quiénes participan en su producción y cómo influyen el clima y la geografía.
