Objective and Scenario

On numerous occasions, you have overheard the children discussing where they want to go out for dinner that night. You know from past conversations that most often their preference is a fast food establishment. Because some of these children are overweight, you have decided to initiate a nutrition education unit on healthy and responsible eating. One of the first lesson activities you present to the children is the MyPlate model, including the five food groups (e.g., fruits, vegetables, grains, proteins, dairy), and nutritious food items that belong in each category. You also discuss the negatives associated with eating fast foods and why their consumption should be limited.
