Kitchen Investigator

Description

Use this kitchen investigator resource as an introduction to a food technology course. Helps students to understand the importance of hygiene and safety within the kitchen in a fun and interactive way.

HOW IT WORKS

Students explore a simulated ‘danger zone’ set up by the teacher to identify dangers and hazards. They record the dangers that they find on the included worksheet. Students then complete a short kitchen inspection looking for other common dangers or hazards which could be apparent. They then need to complete a reflection activity outlining ways in which the kitchen could be improved to prevent danger or harm to workers and customers. Conclude the activity with a class discussion.

Pack includes:

• Teacher instructions for preparing the ‘danger zone’ and facilitating the activity
• 2-page student worksheet
