9-18-08 Nutritional Values

Today in class we discussed the various nutritional values of a variety of foods. We used a computer program that was directed at younger students to identify a combination of foods that would meet certain criteria. For example, we had to pick out four foods for breakfast that had a certain amount of protein and under a specific amount calories. This program provided a unique way of learning the nutritional values of certain foods. It is a fun way to get students actively involved in learning.
