Scheduling Note: The first 4 weeks of school have 18 instructional days. Depending upon the
abilities of your students this unit will require a minimum of 20 days. You may need to continue
into week 5 before beginning the Feeding the Hungry Unit.
In this unit:
Students will analyze calories, fat, sodium of popular snack foods. The objective is to
understand and apply ratio and percent concepts.
During this unit students will take nutritional information from snack foods and come up
with ratios that portray part-to-part, part-to-whole, and whole-to-whole relationships.
o Whole-to-whole: calories and serving size
o Part-to-whole: calories from fat and total calories
o Part-to-part: saturated fat and unsaturated fat
