Ready, Steady, Cook!
The children in year 3/4 have been working on a topic entitled Ready, Steady, Cook! The aim of this topic has been to investigate foods that contribute to a healthy diet. In February we started the topic with a pancake competition between the teachers in year 3/4 and to end our topic we invited parents and carers to come along to a workshop. The workshop aimed to show the parents and carers what the children had learned throughout the half term. Activities included: locating where different foods come from on a map of the world, evaluating packaging that the children had created, investigating healthy and unhealthy packed lunches, sorting food into food groups, making smoothies and creating a healthy sandwich. So that the ingredients were fully prepared, the day before the workshop, the children sliced, grated and chopped salad ingredients such as cucumber, carrots, tomatoes and lettuce.
