Design and Technology

In the summer term, our Design and Technology focus is cooking and nutrition.
This fits in perfectly with our new class topic:
‘Food Glorious Food!’
During our cooking and nutrition topic, we will learn the following skills:
-I can choose the right ingredients for a product.
-I can use equipment safely.
-I can make sure that my product looks attractive.
-I can describe how my combined ingredients come together.
In our last Design and Technology lesson, we designed and made a healthy snack. Lots of you made some healthy smoothies and fruit salads that looked delicious!
Today your task is to design and make a dish of your choice. During our Geography lesson, we looked at food dishes around the world! You may even like to use one of these ideas or find a new dish. It can be sweet or savoury!
Remember when we make a product, there are three stages – Designing, making and evaluating. Today you will complete all three stages.
Task
1. Design your food dish. You might like to look at a recipe book in your house or look to see what ingredients you have in your house to help you with your choice. Look at the design sheet below. You may like to print this sheet to work on or set out your work in this format in your yellow homework book.

2. Make your food dish. Remember to gather all of the ingredients and equipment you need. You can ask an adult to help you with this part.
3. Evaluate your food dish. Now you get to do the best part of the process, taste it! Before you do, remember to take a photo so that you can upload it to the blog!
Try your food dish and think about the questions on the evaluation part of your worksheet. Write down your ideas.
I can’t wait to see what you made!
We are making Irish soda bread and cupcakes today. We have all the ingredients and are getting ready to wash our hands. I will post pictures later and I have done my design and method in my yellow book.
