Thought provoking entry point video. Show this then discuss but explain will come back and discuss further once they have looked at the Eat Well Guide food stories when they should have a better understanding of modern food production in the UK.

Pupil Workbook
About Food Story Worksheets.To save on your workload we set workbooks to allow pupils to do self-assessment. For learning from food story videos then they have to complete a paragraph using key word which you check and mark.
Following feedback from some schools who have trialled this these workbooks which relied on Word Macros to do the self-assessment caused problems with some but not all pupils.
So we have also made available each Food Story workbook available in non-macro format which gives multichoices for each answer. We have also done answer sheet as a pdf for you to use as you see fit!
Details about Self-Assessment Macro Workbooks
The macro Word documents allow pupils to choose answers to cloze exercises based on watching videos about food stories. (If computer virus checker warns about downloading Word macro enabled documents just ignore – they are safe! )
Once pupils have completed worksheet they can click a button to check their answers and then do any corrections.
There is a key word paragraph to complete which really needs checking / marking by a teacher.
IMPORTANT: Pupils must really complete worksheet in one go or at least not close the document with macros enable, if they do this then on opening again the document will clear any of their previous answers! If they do save as and save document as normal word document (rather than macro docm version) then it will preserve the answers they have done but they will not be able to answer any answers not already completed.

The UK is now in the comfortable position of food security.
This situation has given us the luxury of having certain expectations of our food but these can have an effect on the environment.
Which of these should we be concerned about and what can we do about them?
This section is designed to set up a class debate / and or collaborative learning session to discuss these food 'problems' - food miles, packaging, chemical residues, food waste, food security, sustainability to name a few!

Video “The Problems” shows how UK Food producers are trying to solve the “problems” of man with food whilst at the same time making sure we don’t revert to “Man without food” – food security.
Depending on how you want to run session / collaborative learning this could be shown as part of setting up collaborative work.
