End of Day 1, We're Playing to Better Health

We had so much fun today!  You learned so much in just one day. You should be proud.
What did you do in just one day?
You represented the food you consume/eat by creating a quilt from food packaging.



You then presented your masterpiece to the class.  As a class we listed our hobbies and color-coded them red for "stay-still" and green for "physically active."  You then had 1 hour for lunch!  We played in the gym for the last 20 minutes of the period. I showed off my jump-roping skills. Ms. Capers tapped the beach ball we used as a volleyball like a pro, and I saw a lot of your athletic skills.  We had a discussion about why our activities are green or red. Ms. Capers and I really thought the discussion was rich and honest.  We were impressed.
In the afternoon, you were in the red zone more so than in the green zone. (You still looked like you were having fun.)  You read one of three articles that talked about Disney, soda wars, or McDonald's Happier Happy Meal.  You'll present that information tomorrow. During last period, we watched the first twenty minutes of the documentary, "Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead" with guiding questions.  You will continue to watch it throughout the week.    

Great job team!

  6. Yesterday I liked watching the movie because it would teach you what will happen if you eat a lot of junk food.
