Eduardo, a new assistant, was asked by his headteacher to develop a “ Healthy Eating Helps Us Grow” lesson. Although eager to be
given this assignment, Eduardo was apprehensive about planning activities that 4-year olds would enjoy. He arrived early that morning and set up a grocery store for dramatic play, books about food for children to read, and magazine pictures of foods for the children to sort into the MyPlate food categories. The children played “ grocery shopping” for a while, looked at several of the books, but weren’t interested in the sorting activity. 1. Were the activities Eduardo planned, appropriate for 4-year olds?
2. How effective was this lesson for teaching children about healthy eating habits?
3. What are some realistic learning objectives that Eduardo might have established in preparation for this lesson?
4. How would Eduardo assess what the children had actually learned from these activities?
