“Nourish Interactive Teachers”
This site has many tools that would be useful for teachers because it has a variety of educator tools and resources. For example, there are printable worksheets, working with parents tools and materials, and lesson plans for nutrition games. Teachers to keep the students engaged as well as keep them informed about the importance of healthy eating can use the nutrition games provided on this site. I will integrate this into my own classroom by using the lesson plans for small activities. These activities I can later allow students to use and work with in between subjects if they have free time or as a reward for good behavior.

Nourish Interactive Activity Worksheet Link
This link directs you to a nutrition dictionary worksheet. It has students write down at least one health fact and something you learned about the vocabulary word. This follows the writing standard by taking information from what they learned and writing about that fact. This is at work while the students are still learning about nutrition. This worksheet would be a great lesson for teachers to teach their students.
- Recall information from experiences or gather information from print and digital sources; take brief notes on sources and sort evidence into provided categories.
