Measuring sugar content of everyday products (Notice board creation activity) This is a group work lesson focused on measuring the sugar content of everyday products we consume. The end result will be a noticeboard full of pictures of these items with a bag containing the amount of sugar in a serving of each and a corresponding label. One idea to motivate the children during this lesson is when you notice a group who have accurately measured the sugar content of a particular item, take said bag then and there and pin it to the wall. Arter purchasing this resource you will need: • 1kg of sugar (I split my class of 27 into 5 groups and we only needed 1kg – I bought 3 kg just in case) • A teaspoon per group • A balancing scale per group • Weights • A jug for each group (to hold their sugar) • A funnel for each group • Plastic food bags I used this lesson for an observation and had great success.

Minibeast booklet which can be printed and handed to children as they embark on a Minibeast hunt. Booklet focuses on challenging children to find minibeasts in a forest by looking in places which resemble the conditions mentioned in a perfect minibeast hotel. i.e. dark, moist ect. Thought I’d share it with you, I created it for use in a school for a presentation lesson on a Royal Visit.
