Welcome to Teacher Cindy's Blog!

This blog is for my students at Bleiker High School in Asker, Norway. Here I will post things I think you may find interesting. Sometimes they are related to what we are learning about in class. Other times they have to do with English as a language and as a subject. Please jump in and be part of the conversation!

School Lunches?

From time to time, someone will say that Norwegian schools should serve hot lunches like Swedish and Finnish schools do.

American schools also serve school lunches. Here's a video made up of photos one Chicago school teacher took of a year's worth of school lunches.



What do you think of them? If Norwegian schools served hot meals, do you think they would look better, worse, or about the same?

Many schools have their lunch menus on line. My old high school and my old elementary school are among them. (The elementary school also serves breakfast.)
