FOOD LABELLINGAustralian consumers are about to get a clearer idea of where their food comes from, after the Government unveiled a new labelling system last week. The new system was developed in the wake of a Chinese frozen berry scare, when some brands were found to contain Hepatitis A. But how could this system change our buying habits? BtN finds out.TEACHER RESOURCES INCLUDED Learning areas -Design and Technologies/Knowledge and Understanding Investigate food and fibre production and food technologies used in modern and traditional societiesDesign and Technologies/Knowledge and Understanding Investigate the ways in which products, services and environments evolve locally, regionally and globally through the creativity, innovation and enterprise of individuals and groups Years 7 & 8Science/Science Inquiry Skills/Communicating Represent and communicate ideas and findings in a variety of ways such as diagrams, physical representations and simple reports Year 4 Communicate ideas, explanations and processes in a variety of ways, including multi-modal texts Year 5HIROSHIMAThursday the 6th of August will mark 70 years since nuclear weapons were first used in war. One was dropped on the Japanese city of Hiroshima; another a few days later was dropped on Nagasaki. More than 200,000 people are estimated to have been killed in both blasts. BtN will take kids back to that moment to reveal what led up to this terrible event and what the world learnt from it.TEACHER RESOURCES INCLUDED Learning areas -English/Literature/Literature and context Identify aspects of literary texts that convey details or information about particular social, cultural and historical contexts Year 5History/Historical Skills / Historical questions and research Identify and locate a range of relevant sources Years 5 and 6 Identify questions to inform an historical inquiry Years 5 and 6History/Historical Skills / Analysis and use of sources Locate information related to inquiry questions in a range of sources.

We look at the perks and privileges that come along with an upgraded name.ALIEN HUNTWorld famous scientist Stephen Hawking has launched the biggest ever search for intelligent alien life. The project will take ten years and cost 100 million dollars, but what are they likely to find? We explore what an alien life form might look like and what a planet would need to support it.** Alien Hunt will be next week's BtN #AskaReporter topic! (Friday, the 7th of August at 12:30pm AEST)POLICE HORSESPicture a police officer and you probably picture someone with two legs. But add another two legs and a mane and you've got another important part of the police force - horses! Horses have been used in law enforcement for longer than you'd probably realise. But while their job has changed over the years, their effectiveness certainly hasn't.** To find out more about our new #AskaReporter sessions and how you can integrate them into your classroom, head to - http://www.abc.net.au/btn/aar.htm |
