7th Grade
Water
Class Summary - Today I handed back the project that we were working on previously. Then we will talk about the 6 nutrients. We first named all the nutrients; water, minerals, vitamins, carbohydrates, protein and fat. We talked about three of the nutrients being energy giving (and having calories) and three are not energy giving. We then addressed water. Water has no calories, we need 64 oz or 8 - 8 oz glasses. We talked about how we can get water servings from other things besides water like watermelon or oranges. We also talked about what happens if we don't get enough water. Students should be prepared fora quiz on water next class period.
