TALKING ABOUT JUNK FOOD

Dear Students;

How would you teach these students from Philadelphia to eat properly instead of having too much junk food?
Have a look at this interesting video about a project carried out by parents and teacher to control children junk food intake. (8 minutes video aprox. )


Proposed activities:
1.- In order to keep students healthy parents volunteers stay outside the store. Explain why?
(first part of video)
2.- Pay attention to minute 4:09 in which a teacher is explaining how important right nutrition is by playing some games . Could you imagine any other games to teach nutrition?

3.- Optional activity:
Minute 5:50 shows us three images that demonstrates the fact that having too much sugar is can be addictive. According to the video, food industry is manipulating food so we can become addicted to sugar and fats.
Just,reflect on it and share your opinion if you want to..

Let me ask you something: Does junk food mean having no time to cook.......? It´s up to you now
