Answer 3

We eat food everyday because it is important to our body. There are different types of food. Each type of food performs specific functions in our body. To stay healthy, we are advised to eat food which contains a combination of many types. Some food can give us energy while others can make us grow. A combination of essential foods is called a balanced diet. It is generally believed that you are what you eat.

3. Purpose The purpose of this lesson is to draw attention to what makes a balanced diet. The different food items, their sources and content will be discussed. Local food items which contain the essential things which make up a balanced diet will be discussed.

4. Objectives Students will be able to:

i. List at least 10 different food items taken in their community
ii. Identify what each food item contains
iii. Make a list of different food items which eaten can constitute a balanced diet.

5. Resources/materials Uncooked food items are things students can be asked to bring as samples to the class.

* Grain such as maize, beans
* Small quantities of local cooking oil
* Some local fruits in season
* The class teacher can augment with special food items.

It is important that cooked food items as much as possible be avoided as these rot easily and are difficult to keep. The food items could be placed on a table in the Science Corner of the classroom.

* Simple laboratory chemicals and simple glassware for testing food items.

6. Activities and Procedures We eat a variety of foods to satisfy our needs. It is important that we eat the right amount of each type of food. The local food items and the prevalent eating habits of the community should be the launch pad for this lesson. What are the common food items? The students should be asked to make a comprehensive list of local food items.

The food people generally eat may not be what they need. The food we need are usually determined by what part the food items play in our body. For a healthy body, the following types of food are necessary:

* Food for energy known as CARBOHYDRATES such as grains along with FATS and OILS such as vegetable oils
* Body building food known as PROTEIN such as meat, fish, milk
* Health preserving food known as VITAMINS and MINERALS such as fruits
* Water
* Roughage such as vegetables
