Grades 3-5. Designed to enhance the teaching of the Science and Technology Concepts Program™ in the classroom, the STC™ Food Chemistry Student Investigations eBook allows students and teachers 24/7 access to their STCElementary™ content. In the Food Chemistry unit, students explore basic concepts related to food and nutrition by setting up their own classroom laboratory and performing their own physical and chemical tests to identify the presence of starch, glucose, fats, and proteins in various food samples. Some of the tests produce simple, yes-or-no results; others yield results that require interpretation. In a final challenge of their laboratory skills, students apply their knowledge of nutrients and chemical tests to analyze the nutritional components of a marshmallow. Through readings, students learn how fats, proteins, and carbohydrates, as well as vitamins, are related to good health. Students also learn to use the food pyramid, interpret food labels, and choose healthy foods. Through predictions, experiments, discussions, and sharing test results with classmates, students become engaged in a science process that encourages problem solving. Access for 30 students per year for 60 months.
