Dairy Products Memory Game
Teachers: Use the vocabulary words and definitions on the next page to make cards. Lay all of the cards face down and have one student turn two cards over at a time trying to match the word with the definition. If the cards match, the students may pick the pair of cards up. If the cards do not match the students turn the cards face down, and it is the next students turn to match. The student with the most matches wins. This game is similar to the "Memory" game.
Extension: This game could easily be a springboard to lessons on different types of dairy products and how they are made.
Cottage Cheese: soft lumpy cheese made from soured skim milk
Cream: the liquid fat that is in fresh milk. It can be removed and used to make other dairy products.
Dairy: a farm that produces milk
Dairy product: a food made from milk such as cheese or butter
Fresh milk: milk directly from the animal. It has not been pasteurized.
Homogenization: a process that breaks butterfat globules into small pieces so that the cream (globules) won't separate from the milk.
Pasteurization: a method of quickly heating fresh milk to kill bacteria that would cause it to spoil quickly
Skim milk: milk that has had the cream taken out
Teats: the long nipples on a cow's udder where milk comes out
Udder: the mammary glands hanging beneath a cow
