Activity 1…“Top 10” for Being Physically Active (this one would work good to
do in small groups)
Activity 2…Body Talk (use fitness dice for activities)
Activity 3…Get Vertical!
Wrap Up: What’s Your Choice?
Nutrition Component Idea: Discuss PA as the most variable component of
energy expenditure/output, and use calorie chart on inside cover of 10 Steps
to a Healthier Me! http://www.eatsmart.org/item.asp?id=1860 to see how
much calorie needs and food group amounts change simply by being
more/less PA.
Food Sample Activity: None
Student/Parent Handout: “Move It!” mini-poster in our supplies or free
from: http://teamnutrition.usda.gov/Resources/moveitposter.html
Teacher Delivery: Activity #3 Get Vertical! (If they can use the gym this
would work)
Topic 3 – How Much Do You Eat? (you may wish to start series with this
topic)
Intro: Follow up with the calorie requirement discussion (pg 30 POC) from
the PA lesson and ask students these questions..”What happens if you
consume fewer or more calories (food energy) than your body uses?” (pg. 32
POC) Keep this discussion brief and simple! Then ask…”How can we/you
recognize the amounts of food (and calories) we eat?” (pg. 31 POC)
Activity 1…Some or the Whole Thing? Do a quick MyPyramid review.
Measure 1 ounce or 1 cup. 10 Steps to a Healthier Me has an equivalent
reference. Prepare an activity kit in advance. Use Snack Foods: How much is
a “Serving?” worksheet at

Nutrition Facts Label (or laminated cards or real food nutrition facts label)

with the serving size on the label. Is it more or less? Then continue on with
the “Challenge their Thinking” section.

Intro. Do quick lesson on reading a Nutrition Facts label using the READ IT
before you EAT IT! Poster. Follow lesson as written. 5 min.
Activity 3 – Nutrients – The “5-20% DV” Guide – Most of this is teacher
directed and class discussion. It is important though, because students need

Thinking”).
