A great activity where students adjust a snack food recipe and make it more nutritional. This task was created to challenge and engage students working in Technology Mandatory and/or Design and Technologies.

This assists students to gain the knowledge that even their favourite foods can be nutritious and that they can eat a healthy balanced diet that is nutrient-rich. There are a range of activities to complete including a poster design challenge to extend student’s critical and creative thinking.
Students are also provided with a self-check to strengthen their evaluating skills.
This is designed to be a task that students can complete from home during the COVID-19 pandemic or alternatively students can complete this task in the classroom.
This task can be easily printed out and given to students. It can be differentiated for individual student’s needs at the discretion of the teacher.
