I almost gave this article three stars. It starts slow and the tone of the article is less than appealing. The article states that the 'teaching methods described' should take 10 to 12 class periods, I don't see anything in this article that should take that long. The first few activities seemed to be more directed at getting students to recognize their eating habits, especially fruit/vegetable consumption. However, the shining star in this article is buried in the last activity that asks students to identify what would happen if our planet was invaded by aliens who only ate one thing. How creative is that? It was enough for me to increase my rating to four stars.
