DT – Global Food – The children explore and discover the exciting and diverse choice of food available around the world. The first part of the unit provides an opportunity for children to learn where in the world a variety of ingredients flourish. Children will then have the chance to learn some basic and advanced cooking techniques; they will apply these skills when making some traditional dishes from different countries.
