General Guidance
- This experience is best for grades PreK-3 with general assistance.
- Watch all the videos at once or break into mini-lessons. Pause and replay video segments to encourage students to reflect and allow time to look for items for further discussion.
- Use the activity sheets to extend content and reinforce key principles of MyPlate and balanced nutrition.
- Encourage students to predict what they might see and learn based on the title of each stop. Discuss with students how the stop was similar or different from their expectations.
- Work with students to develop a vocabulary list of unknown or difficult terms. Have emerging literacy students draw or sketch word concepts to help reinforce their meanings.
