About This Lesson
This course was developed to help middle school students become more aware of the foods they eat and to be mindful of the ingredients in foods they commonly eat. If students are made aware of the harmful effects that food coloring and additives can have on their bodies and minds, they may make healthier decisions when choosing their next snack or meal. As educators I feel we owe it to our students to help them realize that being healthy is one of the most important aspects in their lives, and that health affects everything they do.
