Nutrition Lesson

Hi parents. Today we started our first lesson about which is about nutrition. I wanted to start the year off with this topic because it is so important because of the obesity epidemic in our country. Also, I think that it will be great for your children to learn this at the beginning of the year and throughout the year I can remind them about this lesson.

Today I just introduced the topic of nutrition. I did that by reading the book titled Why Should We Eat Well? that explained why it's important to have good nutrition. After reading the book we talked about it and I explained some more about the importance of nutritious eating. Some of the students talked about what they eat as well. I will continue the lesson throughout the week in a fun but educational way.

I'll be posting about the rest of the nutrition lesson so stay tuned!
