Teaching tips
Use the food sort page as a hands-on cut-and-paste center rather than a worksheet completed at a desk
Read the Pete the Pig story aloud before the hygiene sequencing page so students have the narrative fresh for ordering the steps
Save the goal-setting page to revisit later in the unit or year to check whether students met their stated goal
Skills covered
Food classification — students cut and sort pictures of foods into healthy and unhealthy columns.
Habit evaluation — students label eight daily behaviors, such as brushing teeth or eating cookies for dinner, as healthy or unhealthy.
