The Home Grown Cereals Authority (HGCA) and the Flour Advisory Bureau (FAB) have collaborated to produce a new multimedia educational resource called The Grain Chain (www.grainchain.com). It offers children a fun way to learn about the ‘field to fork’ cycle of how wheat is grown and used to produce breads and cereals plus advice on eating for health and vitality.
Developed with input from teachers, this latest learning resource can be used both in the classroom and at home. It offers visual, up-to-date materials including activity sheets, games and quizzes which cover the key topics of arable farming, milling, baking, cooking and nutrition. Teachers are offered the benefits of interactive white board activities as an additional classroom resource plus a dedicated Teachers section including detailed lesson plans and curriculum details.
