What Is it All About?

Students work in a small group to explore a healthy eating and nutrition concept of their choice and share it with their school and community through a public service announcement (PSA).

Why Do It?

By working with a small group or team to create a PSA for an area of healthy eating that interests you, you will get to know a healthy eating topic very well and learn how to promote it.

How Do We Do It?

Divide students into small groups of 4–5.

Each group selects one healthy eating concept they would like to explore.

Working in their groups, students write a 30–60–second PSA that promotes their chosen healthy eating concept.

What Else Do We Need?

  • Computer or other electronic device
  • Credible sources of information regarding nutrition and healthy eating
  • Internet access
  • Microphone
  • Paper
  • Writing utensils

How Do We Get Creative?

Promote your PSA through your school's announcements.

Record your PSA to be shared through your school's social media.

Host your PSA in a place that can be accessed by parents and the community.
