<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">4.L.2.1 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">Students know that living things derive their energy from food. Plants produce their own food, while other organisms must consume plants or other organisms in order to meet their food (energy) needs. <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">4.L.2.2 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">Students know that humans have needs for vitamins, minerals, and exercise in order to remain healthy. Students know that vitamins and minerals are found in healthy foods, as well as dietary supplements. Students also know that movement is essential to the growth, development and maintenance of the human body and its systems.

Or Stage a student debate about whether or not a cafeteria should sell junk food to young students. Students will identify the amount of carbohydrates in foods focusing on the amount of sugar and starch in that food. Students will conduct sugar tests to investigate which contains the most sugar. Students will conduct acid base tests and combine baking soda and vinegar to create Carbon Dioxide. Students will create a days worth of menus (breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner) to fulfill the recommended daily allowance of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, water, vitamins and minerals. Determine important components for good health & identify components that offer no nutritional value.Research Minerals: How do minerals get into foods? Mini-report.
