Fully aligned to the new v9.0 Australian Curriculum

A flexible Year 7-10 single textbook resource package to fully support teachers

Underpinned by the overarching core curriculum concept of “creating solutions for preferred futures” 

Emphasis is placed on developing the required processes and production skills, including developing and creatively responding to design briefs, with design thinking incorporated across every stage of creating a design solution.

Indigenous Australian ingredients and First Nations techniques and processes are incorporated where appropriate and students are encouraged to research the ingredients native to their local area.

Comprehensive time-saving teacher support includes downloadable assessment material, curriculum grids, and a detailed course outline with weekly teaching programs.

 The single resource for Years 7-10 provides multiple entry points to the knowledge and skills content to support teachers in tailoring individualised learning for a mixed-ability classroom.

Valuable guidance is also provided in the student text and in the teacher support material for teachers who are not trained in Food specialisations but must now address the Food specialisation area in Years 7&8.

Focus on what students really need to know

Teachers know what their students really need to master in order to achieve VCE success and this series has been written from the ground up to support teachers to deliver just that – exactly the skills and the knowledge required without the inessential content that can distract and overwhelm students.

Support for teaching Food Technology when a kitchen is not available

A range of practical activities allow students to actively engage with food studies outside of the kitchen environment.

Most recipes can be completed at home using common equipment and readily accessible ingredients, and the finished products could be brought to school for sharing and evaluation.

Downloadable practical activities and investigations

The Online Teaching Suite provides downloadable practicals and modifiable documents for experiments, open-ended investigations or ideas for activities that meet the requirements of the science investigation skills component of the Study Design. These practicals can be used by teachers as part of the school assessed course (SAC) work.
