Hands on Food is a food-based teaching resource for primary and secondary school educators in BC! Developed by experienced educators and health professionals, it includes engaging lesson plans designed for grades 4 to 7 but easily adaptable to any grade level.
With Hands on Food, educators can help students develop important food skills like growing, cooking, preserving, and reducing waste while teaching the BC curriculum.
This Promo Kit has everything you need to effectively amplify this valuable resource and inspire educators to use it in their classrooms.
Hands on Food has been a community collaboration between Interior Health, School District 73, Farm to School BC, and the Public Health Association of BC.
On April 27th, we officially launched Hands on Food with an informational webinar hosted by our project leads Simone Jennings, Registered Dietitian and Addie de Candole, BC Elementary Teacher.
In this webinar recording, Simone and Addie give an overview of the Hands on Food website, navigate lesson plans, and discuss how to use food-based learning to teach the BC curriculum such as PHE, Science, and ADST.
