Health

Many of the health education standards listed in the Comprehensive Health and Physical Education Standards overlap with Science standards.

1) https://sites.google.com/site/edibleplantscurriculum/home Edible Foods curriculum: this site is being developed by a PhD candidate, Leila Graves, in Horticulture and Education at Colorado State University. Her passion is School Gardens; however, many teachers cannot obtain permission to create gardens because of summer maintenance issues. An alternative to this dilemma is to use edible foods in the classroom. Her advisors are Drs. Meena Balgopal and Harrison Hughes.

2) https://sites.google.com/site/repositoryofhealthedresources/home Here is a site of nutrition health related resources from universities, government agencies, organizations, and industry. On the main page, click on Web Links and then click on the pages that explain how resources have been categorized (Google Search, My Plate E-Catalog, etc.). This repository was created by Rosie Thornton, a MS student in Food Science & Human Nutrition, Colorado State University, under the supervision of Drs. Meena Balgopal and Leslie Cunningham-Sabo.
