Healthy Moves & Meals Lesson Plan
Over eight 45-minute sessions, students will build gross and fine motor skills, learn healthy eating habits, and strengthen social-emotional awareness through fun, movement-based games, hands-on nutrition activities, and guided discussions.
Young learners need developmentally appropriate movement opportunities, healthy food knowledge, and emotional vocabulary to support lifelong well-being and classroom readiness.
