Teaching Tip of the Week - Plan
The Menu |
|
By: Jacky Sreans, Elementary Teacher
"In our school we have a really dedicated cafeteria staff.
Last year, they challenge the teachers of our building
to use their resources as much as possible for student
benefit. With the help of my principal, I was able to
include a great culminating activity for my Nutrition
Unit. My class researches and plans an entire week of
school menu.
After we learn about a balanced diet, we visit the cafeteria
and learn about what foods they have available or can
order. We plan the menu about four weeks prior to the
serving week. The menu must be balanced and overall healthy.
Students get really involved and are very creative with
the menu. We submit the menu for approval to the principal
and the head of food services. Upon approval, they order
the items and we serve the school.
This year we included our hygiene unit and actual served
the school for one lunch period. I would highly recommend
this activity to all teachers that have the resources
to do such an activity."
