1.Which snack has the most protein per portion? Give its name and protein amount.
2.Which snack has the highest energy value? Does that number alone show whether a food is a good or poor choice? Explain briefly.
3.Which snack has the most fibre? State its fibre amount and one reason fibre is useful in a balanced diet.
4.Choose all the features that can be useful when comparing everyday snack options.
  • Fibre and other nutrients
  • Only the energy number
  • Whether it includes fruit, vegetables or whole grains
  • How much saturated fat it contains
  • Whether a food is labelled as a treat

Plan for an active day

Imagine a day that includes school, a PE lesson and an after-school activity. Food needs and preferences differ, so these are planning prompts rather than a single required menu.

5.Suggest a breakfast for the imagined active day that includes a carbohydrate food and a protein food.
6.Suggest a portable morning snack that includes fruit or vegetables.
7.Describe a lunch that includes a vegetable or fruit, a protein food and a carbohydrate food.
8.Suggest an after-school snack that could be convenient before an activity and name one nutrient it provides.
9.Describe a dinner with at least one vegetable, a protein food and a carbohydrate food.
10.Give two practical times during an active day to drink water. Explain why drinking regularly can be helpful.
Draw a food you might choose as an occasional treat. Add a label naming it.

Nutrition and wellbeing

Use what you know about nutrients and food choices to explain your thinking.

11.Describe two ways a varied range of nutritious foods can support physical wellbeing or everyday energy.
12.Name one realistic change a young person could try to support an active day. Explain how it might help.
13.Match each nutrient or food component to its main role.
  • Carbohydrates
  • Protein
  • Water
  • Vitamins and minerals
  • Help the body carry out many normal processes
  • Supports the body's main source of energy for activity
  • Helps build and repair body tissues
  • Supports hydration and temperature regulation
14.Why can a balanced approach to food include occasional treat foods rather than banning them completely?
