Here's How to Tie in with Arianna's Nutrition Expedition™!

Reinforce the importance of physical activity with Arianna's movement breaks. Each of Arianna's lessons has a physical activity break suggestion in Going Further at the end of the lesson. Use these any time to increase kids' activity and reinforce Arianna's nutrition and physical activity concepts. Play Health Benefit Speedball from Lesson 2 or have students work cooperatively and silently in a Balloon Basketball Relay from Lesson 5.

Help students make the nutrition-physical activity connection. As you teach nutrition concepts in each of Arianna's lessons, also talk about ways that Arianna Bones and Marcus Muscleman are being active. For example, when you read Arianna Bones and the Case of the Missing Food Groups in Lesson 1, point out that Pierre rides his bike, Arianna has on her rollerblades and Marcus puts on his running shoes.
