Lesson
5
INTERPRET A LAYOUT
PLAN
Hello students, how are you doing? In the previous module, you have learned that
foods have shelf lives or span of time to spoil. You have also learned how to estimate
and calculate ingredients for processed foods.
In this module, you will independently learn how to interpret lay out plan for fish
processing by understanding the signs and symbols used.
After going through this module, you are expected to:
✓ Explain the meanings of signs and symbols used in lay outing plan for fish
processing activity.
✓ Interpret lay out plan for fish processing area according to standard set
(TLE_AFFP7-8ID-Of-1).
What I Know
Let us find out how well you know in interpreting lay out plan for fish processing and
symbols used.
Direction: Write TRUE if the statement is correct and FALSE if the statement is
wrong.
___________ 1. Storage area is part of the food processing layout where lessons take
place.
___________ 2. Trimming area is a place where trimming and slicing is done.
___________ 3. Processing area is where the finished products were stored ready for
distribution.
___________ 4. Board is a surface where information is posted or written.
What I Need to Know

8. 2
___________ 5. Toilet is a room for personal necessities.
___________ 6. Entrance refers to a door for one’s entry.
___________ 7. Working area an area where the preparation of food is done.
___________ 8. Lecture area is where the processing and packaging takes place.
___________ 9. Processing area is an area where lessons take place.
___________10.Sink is an area where food preparation is spent such as cleaning,
cutting food, removing waste and dishwashing.
___________11.Fish processing refers to processing of fish and other fishery products
through different inter-related processes like salting, smoking, curing,
pickling and drying.
___________12.Signs are marks with meanings and are used in replacement to words
representing an idea.
___________13.Room Plan refers to the best physical arrangement of all fixtures to
maximize space use.
___________14.Food processing refers to variety of operations by which raw
materials are made suitable for consumptions, cooking or storage.
___________15.Symbols are objects that represent something.
What’s In
It is pretty sure that you are already familiar with the standards in food processing
through correct estimation and calculation. You are aware that measurement is
essential in preserving foods for a longer shelf life and good food quality. You have
broadened your learning by independently estimating and computing the ingredients
and raw materials.
Are you personally doing proper estimation and calculation in food preparation? Now
that you know it is best to use measurement for consistency and better food quality
product, you must.

9. 3
What’s New
How are you doing with our lesson? Your skill in estimation and calculation will be
of great help to our next lesson as you are required to explain meanings of signs and
symbols in interpreting layout plan for food processing area.
Directions: You are to make a sketch of your own food processing room. Draw simple
symbols and write its function with corresponding names beside each symbol. For
example, square for a working table, rectangle for a sink and so on.

Signs and Symbols
Here are the things you should know about signs and symbols.
Do you know that signs and symbols have meanings? They help us easily
understand and follow instructions. We use signs and symbols on the roads, in
schools, and in parks. Interpreting these signs and symbols is also a skill.
In food processing, there are also signs and symbols used. These are necessary in
making a comprehensive layout plan for food processing area.

7
Toilet. A room for personal
necessities.
8
Board. A surface where
information is posted or written.
9
Sink. It is an area where food
preparation is spent such as
cleaning, cutting food, removing
waste and dishwashing.
10
Working table. A table designed
for a particular work.

12. 6
TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
Signs are marks with meanings and are used in replacement to words representing
an idea.
Symbols are objects that represent something.
Layout plan is the output of the decided best physical arrangement of all resources
that consumes space, within a facility.
Food processing refers to variety of operations by which raw materials are made
suitable for consumptions, cooking or storage.
