Students can learn about various foods and tips for eating healthy with this month-by-month collection of recipes, wellness articles, and nutritional links. Some months' information is organized around a theme (May is National Salad month) that could form the basis for food preparation activities in a family and consumer sciences class.

In the Classroom

Look through the newsletters to find a theme or recipe that will fit into a unit you are studying or a novel your class is reading. You may find several recipes. Challenge students to choose one and cook it at home, documenting their efforts with photos and family quotes about the dish. Enhance learning by having students use a blog tool such as Penzu, reviewed here, to share the photos and theirs and their families' thoughts about the dish with others.
