A Letter to Team Nutrition

Hello!

Class photoI am a first grade teacher at Creswell Elementary School in Opelousas, Louisiana. As part of our Nutrition and Hygiene unit our class is participating in the Fruit and Vegetable Challenge. This month, our March goal was 405 Fruits and Vegetables and we reached our goal a week early!

The students have been learning about the food pyramid and paying very close attention to exactly what they are eating and learning about what fruits and vegetables are.

They are so excited to eat healthy and exercise, this challenge, as well as the MyPyramid program has been wonderful for my kids!

Thank you so much,
Miss Tompkins
