Autumn 2:

This half term we will learn about where a range of fruit and vegetables come from e.g. farmed or grown at home.  We will be exploring the basic principles of a healthy and varied diet. 

Children will design an appealing product based on simple design criteria, they will generate initial ideas and design criteria through investigating a variety of fruit and vegetables and communicate these ideas through talk and drawings.

Once their product is designed, the children will use simple utensils and equipment to make it by using skills such as: peeling, cutting, slicing, squeezing, grating and chopping safely. Once eaten, the children will evaluate the finished products against design criteria, including intended user and purpose.
