Layered salad project

Learning outcome

To create a layered salad to your own design

Now for your design

You can do this on your iPad or on paper.

Label or annotation?

If you simply label each ingredient in your design, this is labelling.

If you explain the job each ingredient does, then this is annotation and is a higher order thinking skill. An example would be :

green peppers to add crunch to the salad and they contain vitamin C for healthy skin

Shopping list

Now write your shopping list for the practical lesson.

Task 1

Use Pic collage to make a page of images of layered salads. Try to find as much variety as you can. Upload to the same Padlet.

Task 2

Do your own research to complete the nutrients information on the next slide. Good sources are NHS and Food a Fact of Life.

Remember for practical on Wednesday 12th

This is your own design so you will need to bring in the ingredients you want to use.

Only bring in smallish quantities -so not a whole lettuce!

If you use a jar, you will need smaller amounts for each layer than if you use a lunch box.
