Ms. Feinman talked about her trip to Ireland with the class.
Ask the students what they learned about Ireland! (pssst....I told them about Blood Pudding!)
I hope these students ate until they were full!! Aviana's salad, carrots and kiwi look yummy!!
Please remember to send in pictures of your family eating healthy food and I will post them on this blog!!!! Sarah_Feinman@dpsk12.org

Eating Right
and Learning
Every day I
walk students down to the lunch room.
Usually, I quickly leave to work on lesson plans, but lately I have been
staying to see what kids are eating. I
am shocked to see that kids pick up a milk and the main meal (pizza or pb
sandwich, or chicken, etc) and they skip the salad bar! If they do go to the salad bar, they pick up
one baby carrot and maybe a slice of an orange. I also notice students never
touch their milk! A healthy diet is
crucial to learning. If your child is
sluggish in the afternoon because they haven’t had a single piece of fruit or
vegetables all day, it will hurt
their learning. For those families that are fortunate to have the time
to pack lunches for your child- don’t forget about those fruits and veggies!
Staying
hydrated is
just as important, especially in this dry climate. Students ARE ALLOWED a water bottle that will
not spill, in the classroom.
As adults, we
all know how important a healthy diet is.
We are role models for our children. I am guilty! So I am taking pledge to stop my habit of
Sugar-Free Red Bull! I also pledge
to show students the healthy foods I am eating.
PLEASE talk with your children about eating right. I would love pictures
of healthy meals you and your family have been eating at home. Send them my way and I will post them on the
blog! I will also take pics of students eating healthy lunches at school! I posted links on the blog for advice about
how to help kids eat healthy, please check them out!
Wondering about sugar???
