5-3 and 5-1 Nutrition Project
5-3 and 5-1 Students,
Last class we did an activity where we selected a meal from an online menu and saw how many calories it contained. You are going to find the nutrional information of your own meal.
1) Go to a restaurant website or go get a nutritional sheet for an actual restuarant (for example- Applebees.com -- but try to be original).
2) Pick your meal from that restaurant (remember to include a drink or two and a side like fries if that is what you eat).
3) How many combined calories does your meal contain (add the up the total)?
4) How many grams of fat does your meal contain?
5) How does your calorie total compare to the 2,000 calories an average person should eat per day?
6) Think about your own body and what you do each day. Should you be eating more or less than 2,000 calories? Explain your answer.
This will be due during your next health class! That means A day for 5-3 and B day for 5-1. Feel free to decorate this and make it creative! Being creative will add to your points on the project and rubric can also be found on my blog so you can see how points are earned.
Thank you,
Mr. Goldstein

Bike Race Results
Students,
As you know I love cycling and ride my bike all over North Jersey and New York. I do compete in races from time to time and am copying the results from my last race. I got 7th place out of 17, that is not bad, but with good training I know I can better.
