WHAT’S IN MY SCHOOL LUNCH?
Making Healthy Choices
DVD (widescreen)
Connect with a representative to create a custom curriculum for your district.
A lunchbox competition provides an engaging context for showing that food choices affect physical energy and mental concentration. Zany competitors—a light eater, a healthy athlete, and a junk-food overeater—demonstrate that the food, snack, and beverage consumed at lunchtime become the body’s afternoon fuel: the better the fuel, the better the performance. Also covered: the different kinds of fuel our bodies need, the negative side effects of sugar and fat, and the proper way to prepare and store lunch. Grades 6–12. Color. 18 minutes.
