Students in grade 6 have continued their learning about healthy eating and making decisions that will impact them both now and later in life. After researching macronutrients and developing an understanding of various vitamins and minerals, students have been given the following scenario which they will work through independently, giving them an opportunity to apply new learning.
Scenario Kenton has always been a little self-conscious about his smaller size. In Physical Education class, he has developed his own weight-training program and has maintained it for three months. Every day except Friday, he works out for an hour using the weights. Kenton is pleased to see the increase in muscle definition in both his arms and abdominal muscles and hopes that soon he’ll gain some weight too. Some of his friends recommended Creatine, a vitamin supplement, and protein powder to help build more muscle, so he takes them faithfully every morning, with his breakfast. To build up even further, Kenton is into the habit of buying a donut on the way to school, snacking on cookies and chips after lunch, and then buying a hamburger on the way home. After supper, Kenton lifts his weights. He is usually so hungry after his workout that he makes himself a big cold-meat and cheese sandwich. His mom is constantly amazed at the quantity of food he eats. 1. What improvements would you recommend in Kenton’s nutrition intake? (think about what you just learned about macronutrients and the other essential vitamins and minerals) 2. How is Kenton’s belief that he needs to control his size and shape affecting his eating/nutritional habits and physical activity patterns? 3. Kenton needs help changing his eating habits. Help him by creating a meal plan for one day. *Include breakfast, snacks, lunch, supper and post workout snacks that will give him a well balanced diet. |
