<Presentation of lesson>
Class our lesson for today is all about the
importance of proper nutrition.
There are three important elements of good
nutrition.
The first one is Nutrition.
Class. Who have any idea what nutrition is?

eating the right kind and amount of food at the
right time.
Another element is Food.
Of course, it is the substance that sustains life.
And the last is Health.
Class, health is not only a means freedom from
disease or physical pain but it is also the
complete fitness of the body.
Again class what are the three important
elements of good nutrition?
(read the “nutrition, food, and health”)
Mind you class, nutrition, health, and food are
closely related to each other. To have optimum
health, one must observe good nutrition which
can be attained by eating nutritious food.
Do you understand class?
Yes ma’am.
Now let proceed to the qualities of food that
we need to eat.

nutritious?

needed by our body.
The second is the food must have satiety value.
What do we mean by satiety?
Okay, satiety means of having too much. This
means that food must satisfy our appetite and
give feeling of fullness.
Let us go to the next quality which is the food
must be palatable. The flavor, aroma, color,
and texture of food satisfy your taste.
Class in choosing your food what are the
things you considered before getting it?
Ma’am because it is needed by the body.

3. (call two students)

and it satisfies the taste of the eater.
Another is it should free from toxic agents.
The food must not contain substances harmful
to health.
And last, it must be offer variety and planned
with the budget of the family.
It means it should enough to the budget of the
family, because if it’s not, they can’t afford
nutritious foods.
Example is the “malunggay pandesal” it is
affordable yet nutritious.
Do you have any question before we move on?
None ma’am.
