Activity 4: Aromatic herbs

WORKSHEET Workshop


The teacher prepares 5 aromatic plants which are commonly grown (for example the family of Lamiaceae: mint – Mentha, lemon balm – Melissa, marjoram – Majorana, true lavender – Lavandula, savory – Satureja, oregano – Origanum, basil – Basilicum; the family of Apiaceae: parsley – Petroselinum, lovage – Levisticum, dill – Anethum, etc.). The teacher can buy them in a supermarket. Next, the teacher prints out the worksheets. He/she presents the herbs without their names and pupils with the help of all accessible means (the Internet, books) try to identify them.
