Proper health and nutrition is of
critical importance to the growth and development of young children, yet
many American children suffer from nutrition issues. Choosing either
malnutrition or obesity, address the following:
Discuss the short- and long-term impacts of this nutrition issue on children’s growth and development.
Describe a specific child (within the
early childhood age range of birth to age eight) who has this nutrition
issue. This may be a child you know or you can describe a fictitious
child.
In your description, address how the
child’s school day is affected by the issue and describe three specific
ways the early childhood teacher addresses the issue in the school or
center setting.
Describe three specific ways to combat
this nutrition issue that involve collaboration among school, family,
and community (e.g., parent education, school breakfast, and lunch
programs, etc.).
The paper should be three pages in length, in addition to the title page and the reference page.
Use at least two scholarly sources in
addition to your text. Your paper should also be formatted according to
APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
