Powerpoint Resources

The following PowerPoint presentations are teaching and learning materials that support the KS3 National Strategy and the D&T Framework. They may be used with students for whole class teaching sessions (if you have a white board and projection facility, or an interactive whiteboard) or as the basis for an ICT lesson within food technology, where students have their own PC from which to work. Alternatively, looking at these resources and considering how they may be used, might prompt you to develop your own along similar lines.

To open and download the PowerPoint shows, simply click on the titles in the left hand column of the table below:

Investigating breads

These photographs of different bread types may be used as stimulus material. For example, students could be divided into pairs or groups and set the task of gathering information about a specific bread. If PCs are available, they could annotate the slides with their findings and then present tot he class. Alternatively these slides may be printed and a paper-based version of the activity could be carried out.
