Go-Slow-Whoa Nutrition

By:

This year we wanted to have all 640 students take the knowledge they gained about nutrition and apply it to food choices in the cafeteria.  Currently, our students learn about Go-Slow-Whoa foods through the CATCH curriculum.  We placed little pictures above each food in the cafeteria for a month to let students know if the food was a Go food, a Slow food, or a Whoa food.    

Green smiley face = Go Food

Yellow straight face = Slow Food

Red frowny face = Whoa Food

Students did take more items from the Salad Bar when they could see that most of those items were Go foods!
