Martin, H. Darlene; Driskell, Judy A.
Journal of Family and Consumer Sciences: From Research to Practice, v93 n1 p65-72 2001
In an analysis of food selection education using the Food Guide Pyramid for students in grades 1-4, over two-thirds of teachers (n=464) responded that nutrition should be a high priority in the elementary curriculum. Fewer than half teach pyramid concepts consistently or frequently, younger teachers (20-29) more rarely than older teachers. (Contains 24 references.) (JOW)
