Description

 In the beginning the learners think about why and what food we eat. They write an individual meal plan and explore the origins of food. In a first experiment the editorial gives them an opportunity to explore different flavors. The subject geography is about specialties from all around the world. The students learn about the five categories food can be classified by and which grains, fruit and vegetables grow in which part of the world. They also explore the distances food has to travel on their journey around the globe. The chemistry-part is about nutrients and supplements. In two experiments the learners find out to what amounts proteins and fat are contained in different food products. The subject biology is about healthy diets and energy the body needs. The learners explore the food pyramid and write a food diary. Afterwards the tech-part shows how plant energy is used. The learners become active during the experiment by extracting gasses from plants.


The learning objectives are:
 
  • to introduce learners to the topic of the food and communicate general and technical knowledge
  • to be able to communicate in writing simple facts from their own horizon of experience in the subject area "food”
  • to acquire basic vocabulary and technical terms and use them in a factual and contextual manner

  • to extract essential technical information from didactic reading texts, supported by linguistic and methodological aids
  • to investigate everyday experiences and culturally specific features in the subject area "food" and to be able to discuss them in the appropriate language register
