This is what you will learn in this module:

Introduction

The foods we eat can be HEALTHFUL or LESS HEALTHFUL. Growing children really need a nutritious diet to grow fast and keep healthy. Many children today are easily attracted to food that is beautifully colored and seen on television but, these foods are often too sweet or too salty.

HEALTHFUL foods are mostly from vegetables and fruits but they can also be obtained from fish, meat, and eggs. These are foods that are high in protein that the body also needs. Seeds/nuts such as peanuts and monggo are also beneficial to keep the body strong.

Let us begin your work. Focus your mind so that it can be completed quickly and easily.

This is Delicious!

Directions: Look at the picture then draw your favorite food on the large plate.

Beautiful! Many kids like you also like your favorite food. Do you know if this is good for you?

Analysis

There are many foods that look delicious but do not benefit your health and may cause you to feel weak. Let's study it carefully.

Directions: Color the healthful foods and mark the less healthful foods with an X.

Answer this:

1. Can you name the healthful foods that you colored? Yes or no?

2. What happens to a child who always eats healthful foods? Healthy or not healthy?

Study This!

Study the poem below. Ask your mom or dad to teach you this.

The foods mentioned in the poem are vegetables, fruits, eggs and milk. These foods are essential for the body. The healthful foods that you recently colored include vegetables like calabasa and broccoli, fruits like bananas and watermelon, foods that make our bodies healthy. Chicken and eggs help children grow fast while seeds/nuts like peanuts are also healthful foods that children should eat everyday. In addition to this, grapefruit and calamansi juice which are rich in Vitamin C, helps strengthen the immune system so children will not get sick while beautifying our skin and hair and strengthening our nails.

Foods like chips and other snacks are too salty while candy, cupcakes, and soda are too sweet. They are less healthful foods and should not be eaten or drunk daily. Eating foods that are too sweet can damage your teeth while eating foods that are too salty can make you sick. These foods are not needed by our body because they are less healthful foods.

Excellent! Now you know what healthful and less healthful foods are.

Do This!

Follow Me!

Directions: Circle the healthful foods. Follownthe fruits and vegetables to continue through the maze.

Remember This!

1. Not all foods are good for the body. Because there are healthful and less healthful foods.

2. Eat healthful foods regularly to stay healthy and strong and to grow fast.

3. Avoid less healthful foods to stay away from illness.
