mostly plants?

vegetables into the correct “plant type.”
Lesson 2.1 -- Reflection/Wrap-Up
• So far, we’ve talked about TWO of the Three
BIG ideas of Food Day: “Eat Whole Foods”
and “Eat Mostly Plants.” What do you

• The next time we are together we will learn
about the third BIG idea – “Eat-NOT Too
Much!” What do you predict will be the key
components of this Big Idea?
Lesson 2.2 -- Introduction

of the 3 Food Day Big ideas. What are they?

Too Much.”

foods?”

Lesson 2.2 – Background Information

the situations.

Idea for Food Day? Why?
• Small-Size-It Action Plan.
