Arkansas RD's Visit Community Schools
| Lesson Plans for School Age Kids |
| Dietitians Mary Wells, Sarah Chunn, and Nancy Campalans, with dietetic interns, Sarah Hurst and Ashlee Tappe, provided Nutrition Education to three classes of 5th grade students at Washington Elementary School on Friday, April 30, 2010. The students and teachers were very appreciative for this outreach.
If any other dietitians are interested in going to a school to provide nutrition education, here are some lesson plans that you can use as a guide. There is also a printable food guide pyramid coloring sheet. If you have any additional questions or need additional information, feel free to contact Sarah Chunn at s.chunn@hotmail.com.
