- Listing as many words as possible that begin with the prefix ‘bio’
- Writing a five-sentence story that follows a plastic bag's voyage from a shop all the way into the ocean
- Investigating how much food these bags can hold, given they have a weight limit of 2kg. How many ways can children get 2kg of food into a bag using different items?
