This photocopiable resource, suitable for ages 9-11, explores healthy eating and making wise food choices in ways that will engage, involve and interest. In seven activity-based units, 'Excellent Eats' covers these areas: 'food and you' - what students currently eat, what influences their choices, ways to make changes; 'keeping the balance' - the difficulties in trying to achieve a balanced diet, and how to overcome them; 'breakfast fest' - the importance of a healthy breakfast; 'clean and safe' - safe food handling practices; 'is our school food conscious?' - looks at the kinds of messages the school as a whole gives about food; 'salad days' - nutritious and tasty salads and how to make them; and 'lunch boxes' - provides students and parents with ideas to jazz up school lunches.
