Design Technology in Action...

Pros and Cons of Whole and Processed Food

Year 5 & 6 came together to learn about the pros and cons of whole and processed food. They then sampled a home made soup and a processed one. The home made one surprised everyone by being the most popular so everyone worked together to make some more and practised their slicing and dicing skills at the same time. The second batch was just as delicious and now the whole phase has been challenged to design packaging to promote this new soup “Mr Hanley’s Farm Soup” so that year 3 and 4 children want to eat it!
