Nov 29th - Dec 3rd Nutrition

This week the students have learned about the food pyramid… per “Healthy Choices Healthy Me” Dairy Council Food Pyramid


Food groups

Servings per day

Serving sizes

Good fats and Bad fats

Good fats are usually liquid at room temp i.e. fats from veggies and nuts

Bad fats are usually solid at room temp i.e. animal fats and trans fats

The begining of the week we loaded up the kids with facts then played a tag game where the taggers were extras and trans fats if a healthy student was tagged twice they took three turns trying to throw healthy food into the buckets topped with lips and if the healthy food made it into the mouth then they went back to the game if not the ran a small lap and came back to the game, Thursday and Friday we'll wrap up the week with nutrition bingo and the movie from "Heart Power Game Show" visit HeartPower! Online  for more info.
