Impacting 3rd - 5th Grade Learning Environments

Sponsored by:

Science Education Partnership Award (SEPA)

Overview:

The FoodMASTER Intermediate curriculum presents third through fifth grade students with ten basic topics in foods. Each topic area has hands-on and computer based lessons to take students on an exciting and innovative exploration of food, math, and science. These engaging lessons will help students develop valuable skills and encourage them to think about learning in a new fashion that is fun and exciting for everyone involved.

Lessons include:

• Mesurement
• Food Safety
• Vegetables
• Fruits
• Milk and Cheese
• Meats
• Eggs
• Fats and Oils
• Grains
• Meal Management

The student hands-on Scientific Inquiry pages, or lab data sheets, are designed to be kid friendly and easy for both teachers and students to follow. Each lab activity can be adapted to fit a variety of classroom structures. Computer-aided learning materials are simple enough to be self-directed by the students. The hands-on and computer-aided lessons may be used independently or combined to create a multimedia curriculum.
