Adaptive teaching

Pupils needing extra support: Should be placed in mixed ability pre-planned groups and roles. Can be provided with a copy of the Activity: Food pyramid and Activity: Food groups for additional visual support and structure. Should be given the key ingredient for the group to narrow the selection of ideas. Should be given fewer dishes to design.

Pupils working at greater depth: Can be challenged to work out how many calories would remain from their RDI if they were to eat one of the meals that they had designed. Should engage in further discussion on how the meals are also balanced with regards to the food groups and establishing what the connection is between categories in the Eatwell guide (slide 2) and calorie content.
