DT - Smoothie Making

This half term our theme has been 'Why does it matter where my food comes from?'
As part of this, in DT we learnt about how to make fruit smoothies.
 
We began by learning about the 'Eatwell Plate' and why fruit smoothies would be a good choice to help with our 5-a-day.
We then taste-tested a variety of different fruit combinations as smoothies and discussed our preferences.
We used this information to help us design our own smoothies.
Finally we made our smoothies using a food blender and evaluated them, thinking about what went well and what we would change next time.
