This week, 1,2B have been using their food preparation skills to create their latest product – fruit smoothies.
This forms part of our Design and Technology food learning which involves following a recipe to create a product each term.
The recipe was taken from this healthy eating website. We read it so we could understand the instructions before we made our smoothies.
First, we got ready to cook by washing our hands.
We used lots of different food preparation skills including peeling, chopping, measuring and pouring.
Then, the best part, children got to enjoy their smoothies.
We always evaluate our product afterwards to see how it could be changed next time. In a link to our learning about adjectives (words that add information about a noun), there were plenty of adjectives used to describe the smoothies – yummy, flavoursome, sweet, creamy and delicious.
Help at home by encouraging your child to demonstrate some of their food preparation skills by making this again at home, or a different smoothie recipe!
