Design an astronauts' menu
This resource allows pupils to design a menu that is suitable for astronauts. They will experiment with different types of food and test their suitability for space travel. They will then create a menu that includes breakfast, lunch and dinner for space travellers.
This activity could be used as a main lesson activity to develop testing and design skills within cooking and nutrition. It could also be used as part of wider scheme of learning focussed on the engineering challenges associated with living and eating on the way to, and on the Moon.
