Pupils role-play as journalists as they report
on 'Eating Peppermints Makes You Bald!' and 'Eating
Spring Onions Improves Athletic Performance'.
An excellent opportunity to develop pupils' reading,
writing and listening skills.

- Full teachers' notes and guidance on enabling pupils
to raise and answer their own questions, using increasingly
systematic approaches.
- Pupils' activity cards that help them to identify
and manipulate variables, to test hypotheses and to
search for patterns in data, before presenting their
findings in the role of journalists.
The four parts of the unit are:
- 'Bald Facts' - planning an investigation.
- Planning an investigation into 'A Discovery'.
- Simulating 'Journalists at Work' at a news conference.
- 'Writing your Story' - reporting back.
You may wish to print out the pupils' sheets as they
structure the investigations through posing questions.
