Tomorrow's Show & Share will be to bring a key to a lock that you use to keep things safe, secure and private. It can be the lock to your locker, your security box for your important documents, or a cupboard or drawer where you keep private things.

Health Advocacy: Nevermind Food Groups

Who remembers learning about the food groups?

Did you know that science now shows us that food groups aren't the best way to choose healthful food to eat? WHAT?!!!  SURPRISE! As science makes new discoveries, we adjust to use that new information in better ways. 


The things that ACTUALLY make our food choices healthy are:

  1. How much fiber they have
  2. How much vitamins and minerals they have
  3. How few chemicals are added to them
  4. How little processing is used to make them

Today we'll learn about FIBER! You have probably heard a lot about protein, carbohydrates and fat and very little about fiber. Let's learn what it is.

Game: How Much Fiber?

  • Each player names a food. 
  • The presenters look it up on this page to find out how many grams of fiber are in a serving. 
  • The number of grams of fiber is the number of points the player gets. 
  • The player with the most points after 3 rounds wins. 

PRESENTERS: 

  1. Type the food into the search bar. 
  2. When you enter a food you'll have to choose a sub-category like serving size, raw, etc. 
  3. Then find the nutrition label that comes up and look only at FIBER. The game will get too slow if you look at the other nutrient values. 
  4. Give the player the number of points equal to the fiber content. 

Find the High Fiber Foods

Look at the *pictures of foods here. Which foods do you think have the highest fiber? For EXTRA health, which foods have fewer chemicals?

Presenters: the * means the link was included in the printed materials packet
