Talking about dairy products and good nutrition in the classroom teaches the students an important life skill. What the students eat (and don't eat) can affect their health now and in the future. Eating a healthy diet also helps the students learn and focus their attention at school. Teaching about nutrition and the importance of calcium in the diet does not have to be an additional topic to pack in to the crowded school day. Use the classroom lessons from Wisconsin Dairy Council to incorporate health and nutrition into your classroom curriculum. The lessons are easy for you and fun for your students – building up everyone's appetite for a healthy school breakfast or lunch.
