Welcome to our exciting Food Technology lesson! Today, we are going on a Healthy Eating Adventure. Are you ready to explore the colourful world of food and learn how to make wise choices for our health?
To kick off our lesson, we will have a Mystery Box Challenge! Under your desks, each of you will find a surprise box filled with different food items (these can be pictures, toy foods, or real fruits and vegetables).
Open the Box: Carefully lift the lid of your Mystery Box and take a look inside.
Identify the Foods: Write down the names of all the food items you see. Are they fruits, vegetables, grains, or proteins?
Healthy or Not?: For each item, decide if it's a healthy choice or not. Use a green marker for healthy foods and a red marker for less healthy options.
After you've assessed your items, we will gather as a class to discuss your findings.
Finally, we'll have a group activity where you'll work together in teams to create a “Healthy Plate” poster. You can draw or cut out pictures from magazines to show the best foods to eat for a balanced diet.
By the end of our lesson, you will not only be able to identify healthy foods but also understand why they are important for our bodies. Remember, making healthy choices can turn everyday meals into exciting adventures!
So, let's get started on our Healthy Eating Adventure! 🌟
