Nutrition Update

Our spelling and vocabulary words will come from the nutrition unit of study. We will learn about the five food groups, healthy eating habits, and what our body needs to grow healthy and strong. We hope to encourage healthy eating habits as always during our morning snack/breakfast. We will create food journals, do taste testings, and enjoy all the benefits of healthy eating together.
Here is what we need from you. Our first food group is the Dairy Group (cheeses, milk, yogurt). We would like to do a cheese tasting on Thursday 10/11. We are asking for a few parents from each class to send in donations of cheeses for our taste testing. Donations include: American cheese, Cheddar cheese, Swiss cheese, String cheese. If we could have parents from each class participate that would be great. We have 56 students. Please comment on this blog if you are willing to send in cheese for sampling on Thursday. We will graph our favorites.
For homework tonight, we sent home a food journal. Breakfast and lunch should already be completed. We did those here at home. Please add to the journal anything your child eats past lunch today and return it tomorrow. We will share our journals tomorrow. Also, only the front page of the spelling and vocabulary need to be returned. The vocab is for you to practice this week at home.
Have a great Tuesday!!!
Mrs. Montes
