Topic
This week the children will learn more about balanced diets.  Firstly, we will talk about what things we should all do to keep fit and healthy.  Followed by what kinds of food we eat a lot of and what kind of foods we hardly eat at all and if they know what a balanced diet is.

Children will understand that the meaning of ‘diet’ is a description of what we eat, rather than losing weight.  The children will be introduced to the food pyramid as a guide to a healthy diet.

During the lesson children will have an opportunity to design a healthy and unhealthy lunch box with a ‘healthy food message’ on their lunch box lid.
We will also be creating a favourite fruit pictogram this week giving the children greater exposure to data handling and representing data using graphs.
