Identify healthy eating and physical activity as important health behaviors and as factors that contribute to energy balance. NOTE: For background information, see FYI: GO Foods and WHOA Foods and FYI: Physical Activity in the back of this teacher’s manual. Teacher Materials: • Story: A Good Balance • Projection A 1. Use the following dialogue box, introduce the Celebrate Health program. • Good health is so important that today we’re going to start a new program to learn more about how to be healthy. The program is called Celebrate Health. • We celebrate things and events that are special or important. For example, many people celebrate holidays and their birthdays. Why do you think we should celebrate good health? (Because it’s so important to be healthy) • How do you feel when you’re healthy? (Possible answers: Strong; happy; full of energy; able to play for a long time; not sick) What happens when kids aren’t healthy? (Possible answers: They can’t play as much. They get sick a lot. They don’t have energy. They have more trouble learning at school) • It’s good to be healthy now—and also when you’re older. That’s why in the Celebrate Health program you’re going to find out more things you can do to be healthy. • Let’s start the program with a story. Two of the characters in the story were in the kindergarten and first grade CATCH Programs. They’re friends named Gus Goodfood and Jumping Jacki. [Point out the characters on the see-saw in the story illustration (Projection A).] They don’t live on our planet, Earth. Do you remember where they live? (A faraway planet called Planet Strongheart) • In this story you’ll also meet their friend Zig Zagulous. [Point out the character approaching the see-saw. The name Zagulous is pronounced similarly to fabulous.] • Listen carefully to the story to see what Gus Goodfood and Jumping Jacki tell Zig Zagulous. 2. Read the Story: A Good Balance, leaving the illustration (Projection A) on view, if possible. 3. After reading the story, ask the following questions to review GO and WHOA foods. 4 NOTE: "Soft drink" is used in the CATCH Program. If participants call this type of beverage "soda," "pop," or "soda pop," you may want to do one of the following: (1) point out that "soft drink" refers to the same type of beverage; (2) substitute the word they use for "soft drink" throughout the lesson. • What GO foods did Gus Goodfood bring to the park? (Bananas, baby carrots, and almonds) • You learned in first grade about GO and WHOA foods. Let's review what they are. • In the CATCH Program, foods are divided into three groups: GO, SLOW, and WHOA. GO foods are the healthiest foods. WHOA foods aren't very healthy at all. And SLOW foods are in-between. When you're older, you'll learn about SLOW foods. In Celebrate Health, you'll hear about GO and WHOA foods. • Almost all fruits, vegetables, and beans are GO foods. Plain low-fat milk and yogurt are GO foods. Most foods made with whole-wheat are GO foods.
