I took the time and looked at the adventures of the food detective an interactive computer program that looks at 8 different children that need some help with their lives. Some of the kids needed help to add more protein to their foods, some needed more calcium, others needed help with their exercise routine and the others needed to slow down to get some food for breakfast and more. This was a really good program to show kids and let them explore it. It case studies for the children to look at and helped by giving hints. This is something that you could build a lesson unit around and at the end have them put it all together and do this program. It also had print outs and mini activities for each of the children you helped. I really recommend it for teachers and students.
