Science Curriculum: Nutrition & Food Science (NGSS Aligned, Full Year) course offers a comprehensive exploration of Nutrition and Food Science, providing students with a deep understanding of the science behind food, its production, preservation, nutritional content, and cultural significance. Students will engage in hands-on labs, experiments, and real-world applications to learn how food science intersects with biology, chemistry, and technology. The course is structured to provide a balance of theoretical knowledge and practical experience through a series of interactive lessons, discussions, and projects.

Topics Covered:

Introduction to Food Science: Basics of food science, the food industry, and food safety.
Nutritional Science: The role of nutrients, digestion, food labels, enzymes, and balanced meal planning.
Food Preservation: Methods like heat and cold preservation, fermentation, and food processing techniques.
Food Technology: The impact of biotechnology, artificial intelligence, and nanotechnology on food safety and production.
Cultural and Global Food Issues: Exploring how food impacts global cultures, sustainability, and food insecurity.

Class Structure and Teaching Style:

The class is structured in thematic units that focus on key topics in food science and nutrition. Each unit includes a combination of lectures, hands-on labs, interactive activities, and discussions to keep students engaged. You'll participate in weekly experiments and taste tests, explore scientific concepts through videos and slides, and analyze the effects of different food processing techniques.

Interactive Learning: Expect to actively engage with your peers through group discussions, food experiments, and research projects. Students will have the opportunity to conduct labs, such as making mayonnaise, analyzing food labels, and exploring fermentation processes.

Teaching Style: The course uses a combination of lectures, videos, slides, hands-on labs, and group discussions to ensure a dynamic learning environment. I aim to foster an engaging and supportive classroom where students can ask questions, challenge concepts, and learn from one another.

Student Interaction: Students will interact with me through regular check-ins during labs and class activities. I will provide feedback during discussions and experiments to help deepen understanding. We’ll also have a mix of individual projects, group work, and online research to ensure you can actively apply your knowledge.

NGSS Focus:

Throughout the course, students will explore the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), including:

HS-LS1-3: Investigating how nutrients and food intake support body systems.

HS-PS1-4: Understanding chemical reactions in food science, including Maillard reactions and caramelization.

HS-PS2-6: Exploring the role of food preservation and processing techniques.

HS-LS2-7: Investigating global food systems, sustainability, and food security.

By the end of this course, students will not only understand the science behind what they eat but also be equipped with the critical thinking and analytical skills needed to engage with the world’s most pressing food issues.

學習目標

Students will be able to identify and explain the chemical makeup of foods (carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals, and water) and understand the role of food processing methods such as heat preservation, and refrigeration.
Students will demonstrate the ability to analyze food labels, build balanced meal plans, and understand how nutrients are absorbed by the body to support overall health, with an emphasis on preventing chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes.

父母的引導和規範
As a parent, your involvement in your child's learning can make a significant impact. Here are some ways you can support your student in this course: Encourage Active Participation: Support your child in participating in labs, discussions, and class activities. Help them stay engaged and excited about the real-world applications of food science. Promote Healthy Eating Habits: The curriculum covers topics like nutrition, food labels, and healthy meal planning. Encourage your child to apply what they learn at home, such as reading food labels and making nutritious food choices. Support Research and Homework: Help your child manage their time for assignments and projects, especially research-based ones. Discuss topics together, and encourage independent learning. Foster Critical Thinking: Encourage your child to think critically about food science concepts, such as how food choices impact health or the environment. Engage in discussions about food safety, preservation, and sustainability. Be Involved in Labs and Experiments: Some labs may require ingredients or materials to be brought from home. Help your child gather what they need for hands-on activities and ensure they understand lab safety procedures. Open Communication: If your child ever has questions or struggles with certain topics, encourage them to reach out to me. Open communication between home and school is essential for their success.
