Site Shout-Out: "Mission Nutrition"

As mentioned in my first post, I am currently putting a health and wellness program together for a group of grade 7 and 8 students. In searching for resources, I stumbled across this nifty website: "Mission Nutrition". Unlike many other health companies, websites, or brands that have sponsors, this site (affiliated with Kellogg Canada Inc), does not try to slip in any sort of advertising in their information, suggestions, tips, or resources.

This site is FILLED with ways to incorporate healthy living ideals into the classroom - that's right, as lesson plans! The "Educators" section allows you to select the grade level for appropriate curriculum content, while also providing ways to make the home environment more health conscious in the "Families" portion of the site. The "Lead By Example" area is useful for parents and teachers alike - and really, it is not only our students who could use a little boost in this department! Finally, the "Resources" section is full of other sites, etc, directing you on where to go to find more information. This site is the total package! LOVE IT!
