Abstract: Supplementary teaching activities at the junior- and senior-high school level on issues and topics involving food are provided. Topics include food production and distribution, nutrition, food shortages, food habits, and meal planning. Students are encouraged to develop perspective on global food concerns as well as understand their own family nutrition. Some activities are discussion starters and simulation games. Others provide factual data with a focus on thinking skills. Students use charts, conduct surveys, run scientific experiments, and view filmstrips. Where films are required, sources are given for obtaining the materials. Of the 47 activities, six are incomplete because copyrighted materials have been removed from the document. (AV)
