| |Gregory the Terrible Eater by Mitchell Sharmat |
| |“D.W. The Picky Eater” is a classroom CD-ROM that is extremely affordable, at only $29.95. |
| |It is appropriate for grades Pre-K-second. This software package offers an animated story |
| |for children to listen to, and five activities that they can choose from. The activity I |
| |found that would be helpful and useful in my classroom is the “Family Picnic.” In this |
| |activity, Arthur names a food group, and children identify a food that belongs in that food |
| |group. This activity would help children remember the food guide pyramid. |
|Internet Resources |1. Miss Kolodzinski’s 1st grade Healthy Meals with the Four Food Groups |
| | |
| |Students are broken up into groups, each with a special task. There is a grain, dairy, meat,|
| |and fruit and vegetable specialists. Each specialist has to become familiar with food items |
| |that belong in their specialty group. Then each group gets to plan a meal for their teacher.|
| | |
| |2. “Get Moving……For the Health and Fun Of It.” |
| | |
| |This is a brochure that informs students on the benefits of eating healthy, being physically|
| |active, and offers insight on how to become physically active. It is a great resource for |
| |students especially, but also for teachers and parents. |
| |3. The Educator’s Reference Desk |
| | |
| |This website offers a lesson plan on healthy eating for teachers to use. The objective of |
| |this lesson is for students to be able to list better food choices for themselves and |
| |families when they go out to dinner. |
| |4. “Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner with Gregory.” |
| |cgi-bin/printlessons.cgi/Virtual/Lessons/Health/Nutrition/NUT0017 |
| |The objective of this game is for students to be capable of recognizing food items that are |
| |healthy for all three meals of the day. The lesson is divided into three days, one for |
| |breakfast, one for lunch, and one for dinner. The students will then get to choose what |
| |foods are appropriate for Gregory to eat during each meal, and discuss why they are |
| |appropriate. |
| |5. “Counting on Good Health” |
| | |
| |This website offers teachers great ideas for activities on health. My favorite activity |
| |listed on this page, is when the students get a chance to go grocery shopping. The students |
| |use newspapers to find pictures and prices of foods that would be appropriate for breakfast,|
| |lunch, and dinner. The students write out their grocery list, prices of each food, and add |
| |up the prices using a calculator to find out how much it costs to eat healthy. |

|Accommodations for Differentiated Instruction |
| |Resource Student |Students can work with a partner, maybe even a gifted student. Any of the activities or |
| | |handouts that are in the lesson, should be brightly colored to catch their attention. Some |
| | |of the assignments or activities can be briefer for these students (power point or |
| | |spreadsheet). Praise these students for everything that they accomplish. Keep them away from|
| | |distracted areas in the classroom (flashing lights, excessive noise). Print out clear, step |
| | |by step instructions/directions for each assignment. |
| |Gifted Student |Extend their activities even further. For example on the power point, have them add extra |
| | |slides to their presentation, or ask them to research a particular topic even further. Have |
| | |them help a resource student or be a guide to other students on how to create some of the |
| | |technology activities (power point/spreadsheet). |
|Student Assessment |
|Each presentation the children have to make (power point, spreadsheet, and pictures of being active) will be graded using a rubric. The |
|rubrics will be passed out to each student upon completion of each presentation. |
|All other activities will be graded on participation and completion. If the child has completed the activity to the best of their ability, |
|they will receive full credit. As long as the child is actively listening and participating when necessary during the lectures or games the|
|child will again receive full credit. |
