Year 2 have been learning about food groups and how to have a balanced diet. First we recapped our prior knowledge of food groups from Science earlier in the year. Next we designed a balanced diet and understood that we don’t need all food groups in every meal. A balanced diet is established throughout our meal choices each day.
Next we learnt how to safely prepare our ingredients using knives, scissors, graters and spoons. We ensured our equipment, hands and workspaces were clean before handling food. Then we designed and made our own healthy wraps, trying to include carbohydrates, proteins, vegetables and dairy or alternatives.
