Healthy Eating

Have you ever heard the saying, you are what you eat? In this health unit, students learn the importance of planning and eating a healthy diet. Students learn the food pyramid and how to categorize foods within each category. They also learn about healthy eating habits, and most importantly, they learn how choosing healthy habits will affect how they grow and learn. Students create their own slideshow presentations to show how they make healthy food choices and how those choices affect them. They also create posters to show a menu of a meal of their choice.
