Today in expedition, we have been researching some of the different food groups that make up a healthy balanced diet. The children looked at nutrients such as protein and carbohydrates and found out why our body needs them.
This afternoon, we have been looking at food labels and working out what constitutes a healthy meal. The children used the McDonalds nutrition calculator to find our how much energy, fat, sugars and salt was in each meal and whether or not this would be a healthy option for us.
