Science Idea #2
Fruit and Vegetable Tic Tac Toe
Objective:
After your class has used "5 A Day Adventures" to explore H.
B.'s Body Shop, the following activity can be used to
reinforce H. B.'s message -- fruits and vegetables are good
sources of Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Fiber.
Rationale:
There are many fruits and vegetables available -- some are
better sources of nutrients than others. It's important to
eat a variety of fruits and vegetables that contain Vitamin A,
Vitamin C, and Fiber.
Materials:

Introduction:

Sheet.
