From March 28, 2023 post.
At Mount Gilead Elementary School, Pre-K students learned that half of our plates should be filled with fruits and vegetables, and we should drink water as often as possible. We had a very special youth volunteer assist us with our program Friday, and the kids seemed to enjoy her and learning all about how eating nutritious foods helps make us healthy and strong.
We are super excited to continue this program for the next three weeks! As you may see in the pictures we focus on three words while doing this program(Go Glow and Grow) “Go” foods which are our Grains food group and they make us GO! “Glow” foods which are fruits and vegetables and they make our hair shiny and our eyes sparkle! “Grow” foods which are Dairy and Protein make us grow big and STRONG!!!
In order to be healthy and strong, children, youth and adults all need to eat a variety of foods from all the different food groups.
