Healthy Wraps
As part of the ‘Our School’ topic we have learnt all about healthy eating. We know that we should eat 5 portions of fruit and vegetables a day but we have also learnt about the different food groups including carbohydrates, protein and dairy. We have learnt all about a healthy food plate and how much of each food group we should have.
In order to design a healthy wrap we needed to try different combinations of foods from each food group. We tried foods from the fruit and vegetable, protein and dairy groups. The wrap will be the carbohydrate part of our meal. It was wonderful to see the children exploring and trying different foods that they haven’t had before such as green peppers.
Finally we used all we had learnt about healthy foods and designed our own combinations of food to make a healthy wrap. We tried to make sure we had food from each of the food groups to ensure our wraps were healthy.
