This project has been designed for Year 4 students to facilitate their ability to work collaboratively to plan a digital presentation. The major focus of this project is on planning, managing and publishing a project by working together in small groups. Students are encouraged to work through the pages on the website, with minimal instruction or direction from the teacher. However, teachers should review the website to determine whether it is suited to your students' abilities. You may wish to provide some explicit teaching in order to ensure students will have the background skills and knowledge required to complete this project.
The website will guide and support students by provide information, tools and tips on how to proceed throughout the activities. Students are provide with a range of resources that cater to various literacy abilities and learning styles. Whilst students are encouraged to work autonomously, they have been provided with key questions that will inform their learning and help them determine the critical aspects of the project tasks. Links to printable templates have been provided to allow students to retain concrete resources that can view and worked on offline. If you have students with significant learning difficulties, you may decide to predetermine the working groups to allow for peer mentoring and ensuring every group has members that demonstrate strengths in various areas, which will allow for each group to complete all the required tasks.

Students will develop an understanding that the actions they take now in the school environment will have a direct impact upon the wider environment and effect the sustainability of that environment. Their efforts to make the school a Nude Food school will reduce the amount of waste created and in turn will help in the creation of preferred, sustainable futures.
