What is diet?Diet is the food that we eat and drink regularly.
THE FOOD WE EAT
The food we eat can be classified into 3
main groups
THE “GO” FOOD THE “GROW” FOOD
THE “GLOW “FOOD
What is nutrition?Nutrition is the process by which living things receive the food necessary for them to grow and be healthy.
The “Go” food
Made up of Carbohydrates and fats. Sweet and starchy foods are rich in carbohydrates. E.g. rice, bread, cake, noodles etc.
They give us energy They keep us warm
The “Grow” food
Made up of Proteins. 1) meat (eg fish, chicken),2) animal products (eg milk, cheese)3) nuts, peas & beans.
They help us to grow strong, tall and repair old and damaged tissues.
The “Glow” food
Made up of Vitamins & mineral salts. We can obtain them from fruits, vegetables, liver, eggs, milk etc.
They keep us strong, healthy and protect us from certain disease.
Carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, mineral salts and water are called nutrients.
A balanced diet contains the right amount of the nutrients the body needs.

Why do we need to eat plenty of vegetables ?
Teacher, I don't want to eat vegetables. I dislike eating them
Let me explain the advantages of eating vegetables. Vegetables contain fibre that helps in digestion. Besides, vegetables contain mineral salts such as calcium and iron needed for body growth.

Really? Gee. I don't want to lose all my teeth! I shall eat vegetables from now on!
The latest findings by doctors show that children who do not eat enough vegetables suffer from tooth decay.

31 Mar We discussed and decided to design an educational card board game on diet and nutrition. We design a path for the movers on the boardgame and think of types of food that are nutritious or not to the body.
1 April We gathered the information and print out on coloured and matt paper.
6 April Then we cut them to size and pasted them together. We designed and pasted stickers on the boardgame. We found a dice and a few movers.
7 April We played and tried out the game.
Feedback: The game was really fun and interesting . It has benefited us . The group has learnt the health knowledge and skills.
Conclusion: We are now more aware of the type of food we eat whether they are nutritious or not. We realised that some food are not healthy for our body. We also learnt the importance of drinking water and eating plenty of vegetables so as to keep ourselves healthy.
