Highland Students Study Wellness & Nutrition

Brandi Timberlake’s third graders (Highland Elementary/Stow Munroe Falls City Schools) have been studying nutrition and wellness in the AT&T Classroom. Students have been recording their daily food intake and analyzing their data in comparison to the recommended daily allowances. The class has been using a number of online resources accessible at Sheppards Software, Kids Health, Nourish Interactive, Nutrition Exploration, and Smart-Mouth. After researching nutrition and wellness online, the students worked in groups to write their own lyrics for a song on nutrition & then created a music video to present to the class. During the next part of the unit, the class will be studying body systems.
