Description
Help your HSC students grow their knowledge and reinforce their learnings with the Year 12 Food Product Development 2021 homework book. This booklet will allow students to have their writing checked and assessed weekly.
The book includes 21 questions which are formatted in HSC style and cover the Food Product Development syllabus. A variety of key terms have been used across these questions to give students ample opportunity to practice their responses in the lead up to the exams.

The students will be required to answer applying their own knowledge of the content.
The homework book can be differentiated to suit the students’ needs. Alternatively, this booklet can be used for revision of the Food Product Development unit.
