|
|---|---|
|
The school cafeteria, what an untapped education center! Through our presentation we will show how the school nutrition staff and the cafeteria can be used as a classroom tool! Learning fractions? Travel to the cafeteria to increase/decrease a recipe! Talking about ag careers? Meet a farmer that grew the food in the cafeteria! Working on childhood nutrition? Work with the kids on planning a healthy lunch menu or snack! We will demonstrate through hands on activities how a simple field trip to the cafeteria can open an endless amount of classroom activities! Workshop Session (all workshops will be 75 minutes) | |
