1. Final Review: What did we learn?

2. What is the Relationship between Healthy Soil and Healthy Food?

3. What can we do to help our community reduce landfill waste?
The Environment
What can we do to help our community reduce landfill waste?
Reuse
Compost
Recycle
“What are some things we can do to help our community reduce their waste flow?” (compost, recycle, reuse/repurpose, etc.). Do you remember what it means to compost? Composting is when the once living thing is turned into dirt or fertilizer.”

4. Which plants are native to Wisconsin?
“Which plants are native to Wisconsin? We have many native plants living here in Wisconsin. When a plant is native to Wisconsin they can grow and live a happy and healthy life even with our cold winters and short summers. If our food comes from a plant or animal that is native to Wisconsin, then that food is also considered native to Wisconsin. Apples are native to Wisconsin.”

5. Apple Varieties Macintosh Fuji Granny Smith Red Delicious
“There are many different types of apples. Can anyone name a specific apple variety off of the top of their head? Here are some popular apple varieties native to Wisconsin.”

6. Healthy Snacking
“Do you remember talking about healthy eating? There seems to be information about healthy food all around us. Where are some places we get information about healthy food?” (magazines, food containers, research, friends/family/school) Many of you said you are in charge of your own snacks. As you get even older, you are going to take on more and more responsibility for your eating. It’s important that you have tools to help you make those decisions, and today we are going to learn how to use some of them.”

7. MyPlate
“MyPlate is one tool that you can use when you are making decisions about food. What do you notice about the MyPlate graphic?” (at the table, food groups with colors, half plate is fruit and vegetables) MyPlate is especially helpful when you are looking at a whole meal, but it still leaves a lot of decisions up to you.”

8. Potato Transformation
Food Processing
Potato Transformation ?
“How does this potato become these potato chips?” (started as a potato which grows underground, then it was shipped to a factory where it was washed and sliced into very thin pieces, from there the potato slices are baked or fried in oil until they resemble what we think of as potato chips, it is then packaged and sold.)”

9. Potato Flow Chart
There are many steps in the process of turning a potato into a potato chip. Potatoes are grown and harvest in a field. Potatoes are shipped in a truck to a factory. The potatoes are cut into small pieces. The small slices are fried with oil and packaged into bags. The bags are delivered to the grocery store where we buy them as a snack.

10. Energy Balance
“Let’s pretend this balance is our body. On one side we are going to put food that we need to give us energy. On the other side we have a jump rope that is representing how we can use that energy.”

11. Importance of Buying Local Foods
Gives people in our area jobs
Keeps money in our community
Better for the environment: less transportation, less chemicals
We are able to talk to the farmers about where our food comes from
“What are local foods? Foods that are grown close to where we live. We discussed food systems with a role playing game. During this role playing game we discovered why it is important to buy local foods from local farmers. We talked about how our food can affect three different categories: environment, economic and social. Can we think of some of these reasons?”
