Classroom Curriculum for Kindergarten

Building a healthy me!

 

 

This six-lesson plan nutrition curriculum aligns with California education standards and can easily integrate into your units on Language Arts, Health, Math, Social Studies and Physical Education. The lessons were created using a behavior-change model that encourages healthy-eating behaviors and attitudes in your students.

These lessons have been designed with flexibility (and fun!) in mind in order to blend well with your usual instructional sequence. Kindergarten students will learn about food groups and the importance of breakfast as a healthy start to their day. They will practice making healthy food choices, considering personal preference and cost in a "grocery store" trip in your classroom. Students will also learn to follow and prepare a simple recipe. This nutrition curriculum is free for California kindergarten teachers!

Newly aligned to California common core standards!

This program is on our schedule for revisions, however the current version is consistent with the Dietary Guidelines and the food pyramid is still correct. The plate is just a graphic representation of the Guidelines.

I love the first grade program. Last year was my first year using the kindergarten progra, and I was disappointed.
