| Abstract | Matthew Tosh introduces a Key Stage 3 science lesson based around a fictional TV news story which encourages students to discuss the science linking health and diet.Dan Hannard, a Physics teacher at Woodkirk High School near Wakefield, delivers the lesson to a group of year eight students using the lesson plan, video and text-based resources provided. The students watch the TV news report in which a proposed ban on the consumption by under 16s of certain foods - like burgers, chips, fizzy drinks and most types of pizza - is announced. Dan organises the students into small groups to consider the arguments put forward by the people interviewed in the news report and to discuss whether these arguments are based on fact or opinion. He's pleased at the scientific evidence the students bring to the debate. At the end of the lesson, the students decide in their groups whether or not they would support the ban and outline their reasons to the rest of the class. |
