All About Food!!!
This half term, the children will be learning all about food. They will be learning about animal diets and new vocabulary carnivore, herbivore and omnivore. We will also be looking at the foods that we eat. We will be reviewing the different food groups and how much of each we should eat in order to lead a healthy lifestyle. We shall be looking at the amounts of sugar is in the foods we eat and decide on healthy choices.
Investigation - How much sugar is in our food?
The children have been learning how to use digital scales to weigh amount of sugar in the foods that we eat. They were given to choices of food which we then weighed out the total amount of sugar per 100g. We compared to two amounts to help us to choose the healthy option.
