Healthy Nutrition!

The theme of the week was "Healthy Nutrition!" We learned all about the five food groups on the food pyramids. We taste tested yummy healthy treats, made food collages, a cornucopia, graphs of our favorite foods, and even dipped half a potatoe into brown paint to make the body for a colorful turkey. Our poem of the week was a dance too!

For grains, do the monkey.
Move your arms up and down!

For veggies do the twist.
Twist yourself around!

For fruit, do the slide.
Slide your feet!

For dairy, do the cha cha.
Feel the cha cha beat!

For meat, fish, and beans do the pogo.
Bounce your body!

Thank you for bringing in canned foods for the food drive! Please do not forget to bring in your favorite recipe printed on the computer for our class recipe book.

We popped popcorn in the popcorn machine!
