Ideas for Health & Wellness Contest! Tips for Nutrition Education in the Classroom

August 01, 2011 | Written By:

Schools across the country are taking a new look at wellness and working to create a school culture where messages about healthy eating and physical activity are a regular part of the school day. To support this effort, teachers are working to bring nutrition education messages into a variety of lessons and are creating innovative ways to share lessons about balanced eating and healthy habits.

This week, as part of our Ideas for Health & Wellness Contest, Healthy Schools Campaign asks:

How do you make messages about healthy eating part of the classroom?

Submissions close Sunday, August 7 at 11:59 p.m.

Remember, there are four ways to enter Healthy Schools Campaign's Ideas for Health & Wellness Contest:

RSS_Logo Blog. Each week, we’ll post a question on our blog. Share your story, idea, and tips in the comments section of that week’s post. 

 

 

Email_LogoEmail. Send an email with your idea to ideas@healthyschoolscampaign.org for that week's question. Put the question in the subject line.

 

We will randomly select a winner who will be contacted in respect to their submission. (Facebook winners will receive a message, Twitter winners will receive a DM, and blog commenters will receive an email). We’ll share stories and ideas from the contest in the coming weeks. All entrants will be recognized when their ideas are used.
