There are five lessons of 50min each. They are designed to be incorporated into the school’s curriculum surrounding the food production unit for National 5 (biology) students. Providing that classes are taught when the food production unit would normally be delivered, these lessons can act as a detailed blueprint of how to teach the two related subjects in tandem.
Lesson 1: Food demand
Lesson 2: Fertilisers in food production
Lesson 3: Pesticides and the food chain
Lesson 4: Analysing the experiment results (food conversion efficiency and water footprint)
Lesson 5: Mealworms in comparison with livestock
