This guide for teachers, supervisors and administrators offers a conceptual framework and resources for developing a complete nutrition education program. Included are: (1) a statement of need for nutrition education, (2) definition of what nutrition education should encompass; (3) goals identified by teachers, curriculum specialists and nutrition specialists, and (4) an outline of current issues in nutrition. These ideas are incorporated in an outline of concepts for a comprehensive kindergarten through grade 12 nutrition curriculum which includes a brief description of key ideas, and a description of a total school nutrition program which includes the components of food service, nutrition instruction, and community-family involvement. In addition, resources for teacher use in planning a nutrition curriculum or teaching unit are listed.
