Investigate stage
The main task for this unit is to make sandwiches for 15 Pre K students at AIS that are going on a field trip to Kidzania at an unknown time. The students need sandwiches that would taste good, be healthy and at the same time the sandwiches must not get ruined. The children need sandwiches for their fieldtrip because they need something to eat so that they can stay happy, and so that they can have a good time in Kidzania. This essay will be discussing how research could be used to plan a task as simple as making a sandwich.
In this problem there are 3 main types of people who care about the 15 Pre K students getting something to eat. First there are the teachers, the teachers care about this problem a lot because when children at around that age (which is 3 years old) get hungry, they start yelling, crying, and fighting with each other and that is just a sign of them getting cranky because of the fact that they haven’t eaten for a while or that they don’t like what they are eating. Then another reason that the teachers care about the sandwiches is that if the children get some type of food that they are allergic to, it will be the teacher’s responsibility to look after that child and it would be blamed on the teachers. Finally if the children get sandwiches with too much sugar, they will start being hyper and start running and jumping all over the place and the teachers would have to start running after them. Basically the teachers do not want to have to look after every student individually and worry/deal with so many problems on a fieldtrip that is supposed to be fun.
Another important type of people that care about the sandwiches that the Pre K children are eating is the parents of the children. Each studen...

Proper nutrition is one of the most essential elements to being healthy and living a long life. People deal with food every day, and food has been a part of life since the beginning of civilization. What we eat becomes our diet, and our diet plays a major role in deciding how healthy we are and how well our body functions. Without proper diet, our body cannot carry out the functions it needs to perform. Most people have some common knowledge on what is good and what is bad for the human body to consume. Fruits, vegetables, nuts, and grains are some common items people think of when they think of healthy foods. However, it is not enough just to know what foods are good for your body, it is also important to understand why certain foods are good for you and what they do to help the body function.
