Chemical for consumers topic can be made more interesting when students bring canned or bottled food; tomato sauce or any food label and then categorise the food content into preservatives, antioxidants, flavouring agent, stabilisers, thickening agents and colouring agents.

We can use this method for the topic Nutrition in Science Subject Form 2 and 5. Chapter 6 Science Form 5 ( Food Technology ) too. So interesting. I had used the method but I used food label / food packs and asked students to calculate calorific values / observing the nutrition information / ingredients. The students enjoyed doing it.
