Summer Course 26LC 07 003 - Food Sustainability and Biodiversity – Using Nature and Food to teach STEM - Airfield Estate

 Create lesson plans that utilise sustainable food systems and biodiversity as a conduit for STEM, literacy, numeracy as well as physical and mental well-being.

 Use SSE to maximise the effectiveness of teaching biodiversity and sustainable food production in the classroom and through the school as a whole.

 Implement correct health and safety procedures within a classroom environment (inc. simple food safety, knife skills, correct food handling, garden safety and safety for outdoor experiments).

 Identify and be confident in using different biodiversity experiments and observations, cooking techniques and be able to compare and contrast them using a scientific understanding of the processes.
