Students will further develop their practical cooking skills to make functional and healthy food products that can be recreated at home. They will also consider constraints, hygiene, specification and sustainability issues that inform decisions about preparing and cooking healthy meals. They will work through designing, making and presenting a dish using seasonal vegetables. During the unit, they will also make a range of other recipes that further develop their cooking skills and knowledge and use of ingredients.
This unit builds upon the knowledge and skills learnt from Year 7 by discussing the technology process in more detail. Concepts of attitudes and values, Hauora (wellbeing), health promotion and socio-ecological perspectives will be considered.
