    This site is geared toward middle schoolers and has a lot of health information. They can find out more about nutrition by going to the Body tab and clicking on the "More on Body" link at the bottom of the page. This takes them to a site that has information about proper nutrition and what they can do to be healthier. This is a good site to use for researching nutrtional requirements.

    This site is from the Center for Disease Control (CDC), an appropriate site for our researchers! Has information on all aspects of children's health and games! The one that would be great to use with the students is Dining Decisions in the Food & Nutrition section. It has the students select 5 items from the cafeteria that are the healthiest to eat. It gives them information about the items after they have chosen them and why they are or are not good choices.

    This site has the California standards but the activities could be used with the TEKS. This will tell students how much calcium they need and gives them information on how to get it. This would be a good site for students to check the nutrition they get from the meals they eat outside of school.

    This site has an interactive game on the Food Pyramid that explains what foods teens need to eat and how much to be healthy. It has a quiz that the students can take after playing the game and print out their results. This would be a good starter activity that introduces the students to the nutrition requirements they need. The site has articles that explain many health issues that concern teens. This is a good place to have students start their research on what makes a healthy meal.

    It wasn't until after I registered that it hit me, I have these kits in my library! Teachers come in and drool over them because they're complete and most of the time, the kits the teachers have in their classrooms are completely empty. Teachers register for free and share their username and password with their students. This is the middle school module, they also have modules for K-2, and 3-6.
