Afternoon - Wider Curriculum 

D+T 

Today, we are going to focus on healthy food choices and the effect it has on our bodies. 

Task 1 

Choose 12 food items at random from your fridge or larder (or get someone else to choose them for you). Now place them into groups – how you group them is up to you. Write, draw or take a picture of your groups and write an explanation of how you grouped them. 

Task 2 

Carefully read through the ‘DT - Healthy Eating PowerPoint'. Now rearrange your food items into the correct categories as shown on the Eatwell Guide – slide 7 (CARBOHYDRATE, FRUIT AND VEGETABLES, PROTEINS, DAIRY and OILS/SPREADS). Again, take a picture of your real-life ‘Eat Well Plate’ if you can, for your Home Learning Book or draw it. 

Task 3 

Read the Information Text about healthy eating carefully and choose the level of questions you would like to answer. Remember to write in full sentences.  

• Mild - copy and complete the sentences into your book, using the word bank provided with each sentence to help you.  

• Spicy - answer the questions in full sentences, using the word banks to help you.  

• Hot - answer the questions in full sentences. You MUST include ALL the words in each word bank in your answer. There is an extension challenge to complete at the end.
