This webinar is intended for elementary and secondary educators. As educators we aim to inspire a generation of students to build a healthy relationship with food. But, it’s not always easy for educators to keep up with the latest nutrition news, since the science changes quickly and food fads come and go. Do you have the necessary knowledge to teach nutrition to your students? How can you separate fact from fiction? Ask a dietitian! This hour-long session is an open Q-and-A format with a dietitian, an elementary and a secondary educator, where you can ask nutrition questions, confirm or expose long-held nutrition beliefs; explore teaching ideas, and leave feeling empowered to help inspire your students. Nutrition is about more than just what we eat. It’s also about why, how, where and who we eat with. From the health benefits of sharing family meals to the detriments of labeling foods as “good” or “bad,” you will learn interesting nutrition facts to broaden your own food knowledge so you can confidently teach about it.

The webinar is presented by Andrea Barrow, Andrea Haefele, and Cara Rosenbloom RD.
