Differentiation

Pupils needing extra support: Should sit near the board to use examples shared as a class.

Pupils working at greater depth: Should be encouraged to use a range of different foods and types of exercise in their healthy diaries. Should describe the effects of different food groups on the body. Will this give the children energy throughout the day?

Fill in a few examples for each of the columns (food, exercise, rest) on the board and ask children to fill in their healthy diaries.
