Healthy Eating

For Grade 10 Wellness class there is a unit on Healthy Eating. For this particular unit you would teach students about proper eating and dieting and proper physical activity for wellness. Grade 10 curriculum Eating Healthy Strand.
I thought that the site Mind, Body, and Soul would be great to teach students about proper eating and how to stay physically activity to maintain a healthy body and mind. On this site there is a lot of useful information for students to see and learn about. The site shows you things like which foods to eat and the portion in which you would eat them and also things like taking responsibility for your health. To incorporate this into my classroom I would use the website closer to the end of my Healthy Eating strand. I would first tell my students to go into one of the interactive games, menu master or food myth or magic. On this menu it has questions about every meal of the day and asks things like which foods are quite balanced and too high in fat and so on. Then on the Food magic or myth, it asks questions about healthy food and healthy eating in a true of false format. I would use this site to prepare my students for their final test on the Healthy Eating Unit. Using these games will allow my students a hands on study tool and I will even incorporate some of the same questions on the test. I think that this site will be great for teaching students about healthy eating and healthy lifestyles.
