Print out the food plan and encourage the children to record food they have eaten each day for a week. Then work together to list the food under headings such as fruit, vegetables, meat, drink, snack food. After reading Mrs McGuire's Muffins make muffins in class. Introduce the children to different measuring tools. Give them some measuring containers such as teaspoons, tablespoons, jugs, cups, measuring jugs, plastic litre containers and buckets.
Children record their findings.
They share these in the class and compare their results.
