This book has been designed to provide teachers with the tools they need to include cooking in the classroom. With relative ease, teachers will be able to undertake a variety of healthy and fun food activities. Many of the recipes do not even require access to an oven! The book will help teachers meet the criteria of the September 2014 National Curriculum for all primary school children to learn cookery and about healthy eating. It provides a step-by-step approach, developing skills in food handling and understanding of the part food plays in the world around us, along with a range of cross-curricular links. Each of the 15 recipes is made as an individual mixture so children make and see their own achievements. The results are designed to go home with the child to share and demonstrate their new skills to siblings, parents, relations and friends. This can provide an excellent opportunity for celebrating achievement and lead to discussion about new foods and flavours at home. The teacher’s notes also offer suggestions of both how to increase the skill demand of the recipe and how to make it easier, meaning that you can use the recipes through the whole age range of the school.
