Cooking and nutrition
Pupils should be taught to:

- Prepare and cook a variety of predominantly savoury dishes using a range of cooking techniques.
- Understand seasonality, and know where and how a variety of ingredients are grown, reared, caught and processed.
Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: Will need support reading and interpreting the map and answering the questions. Complete a few letters or words within the crossword and photocopy them for those children requiring additional help. You may want to consider demonstrating the fork-secure cutting method for pupils requiring additional help, so they can keep the fruit still while using a butter knife between the fork’s prongs.
Pupils working at greater depth: Will need to consider quantities and costs when comparing recipes. These children could be extended to look at when the ingredients needed for their skewers would need to be planted. Encourage accurate slicing of the fruit for all pieces to be of a similar size.
