Nutritional Programming: Food Smarts Kids.
The Bridgton Public Library is partnering with Snap-Ed to offer programming to middle school students to learn more about health and wellness through images. Food Smarts Kids is a learner-centered nutrition education and cooking curriculum, covering several core nutrition principles including eating a variety of foods, choosing whole foods, consuming water more often, and physical activity. Cooking at home from whole ingredients, fresh food, or minimally processed foods are encouraged. These lessons are aligned with state learning objectives to help meet curriculum requirements and are flexible to meet the needs of your schedule and can be delivered in 30 minutes, 60 minutes, or 90 minutes. There are 5-6 lessons per series that can be implemented weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly. The lessons can be delivered in-person, virtual live, and pre-recorded.
