ReadB4UEat: Nutrition and Technology Lessons

  

The ReadB4UEat! Nutrition and Technology Lessons are designed for children and youth in grades 5-7. The Alliance for a Healthier Generation developed this Teacher Guide primarily to offer information and experience in reading food labels and practicing healthy eating behaviors.

Schools that implement the Teacher Guide for the ReadB4UEat! Nutrition and Technology Lessons will address the healthy eating skills instruction component within the Alliance’s Healthy Schools Program Framework for Health Education. Learn more information about the Healthy Schools Program and the Framework.
