Nutrition Month Activity Idea
Yes, I know that Nutrition Month is drawing to a close, but I couldn't resist sharing one last activity idea to promote good health. Plus, this activity doesn't have to be limited to March -- use it anytime you want to teach a nutrition lesson!
I planned this activity around the topics in the Nutrition at a Glance Poster so that you could help your audience internalize 3 keys to balanced nutrition. If you don't have the poster, no sweat! Just address the topics with your class before you begin the activity.
Divide everyone into three groups and assign one of the three topics on the poster to each group:
- Let Macronutrients Put Their Best Food Forward
- Get Your Vitamins and Minerals from Food
- Avoid Extra Processed Food Dangers by Reading Food Labels
- Nutrition Apron
- Daily Food Diary
- Fork Bookmarks
- Nutrition Month Stickers
- Fruits and Vegetables on Forks Stickers
- 3 Nutrition Month Activity Ideas and a Free Infographic
- Portion Control Activity Ideas
- Nutrition Month at the Worksite: Activity, Display, and Presentation Ideas
- Shopping with MyPlate: An Activity Guide
- Eat More Vegetables: 3 Activity Ideas
