Unit 8A Food & Digestion – Lesson 4.
Why is food important?
Why is food important?
Aim Produce a poster that explains where we can get a key nutrient from and why we need that nutrient.
Starter – Mix & Match
Some nutrients are listed on the board together with their function in the human body. Your job is to match the nutrient to the correct function. This provides a recap on the previous research lesson where you found out about nutrients using the class textbooks.
Main activity – Poster design
Your job is to design an A4 poster about a specific nutrient. You MUST include the following information.
The name of the nutrient i.e. Fat
Three foods that are sources of that nutrient
Why our bodies need that particular nutrient.
Any extra information you find out will be a bonus.
You will then have to present the poster to the class and give a short talk about what you found out (1 min approx).
The class will review the posters and presentations and decide which one is the best. There will be a prize for the winner. Mr C will also award you a level for your work.
Plenary
Mr C will lead a short quiz to find out how much you have learned over the previous two lessons.
