Science in the FCS Classroom
I never teach my pupils. I only attempt to provide the conditions in which they can learn. Albert Einstein
Science in the FCS Classroom
• TEKS Addressed– Lifetime Nutrition and Wellness
• 5(A) The student demonstrates knowledge of food management principles . The student will demonstrate
correct food preparation techniques, including nutrient retention
– Food Science• 4(A) The student analyzes the role of acids and bases in the food sciences. The student will identify the properties of acids and bases.• 6(I) The student studies the chemical properties of food. The student will analyze chemical and
physical changes in food
Science in the FCS Classroom
– Culinary• 6(A) The student will demonstrate the preparation skills of items commonly prepared
in food service operations
Science in the FCS Classroom
• TEKS Addressed:– Lifetime Nutrition and Wellness
• 1(A) Classify nutrients, their functions, and food sources and compare the nutritive value of various foods
– Food Science• 17(A) compare the properties of saturated and
unsaturated fatty acids
– Culinary Arts• 6(A) The students understands the basics of nutrition
Science in the FCS Classroom
Suggestions for Using “Fat Balloons”:1. Have students list examples of food that
contain the type of fat they have illustrated.2. Use the balloons as a visual when discussing
the types of fat used in recipes in the laboratory.
3. For fun have “fat building” races and see who can build their molecule the fastest and the most accurate… Then give then a “Fat Prize”.
Science in the FCS Classroom
• TEKS Addressed– Lifetime Nutrition and Wellness
• 5(A) Demonstrate correct food preparation techniques, including nutrient retention
– Food Science• 2(H) Communicate valid conclusions supported supported by the data through methods such
as lab reports, labeled drawings…………..
– Culinary Arts• 6(A), (I) Demonstrate baking techniques such as yeast breads, and rolls, quick breads and desserts• 1(D) Understands scientific principles used in CA
