One that I found particularly interesting was "National Waffle Day" but the most interesting one, that some people may not hear too much about, is that March is National Nutrition Month. I found this from the American Dietetic Association. Could anyone share how they promote National Nutrition Month within your health and physical education classes? Such as, activities or ideas for lessons, or maybe some sort of nutrition project? Anything at all would be helpful! It would be nice to know that there are a lot of teachers promoting this for the month of March even if people don't really know about it. Thanks!

I do promote Nutrition month. Last Month was National Heart Month hense Valentine's Day. I don't know if you know about PeCentral.com, they have a bunch of lessons devoted to Nutrition. Plus also the March Teacher's Toolbox on www.aahperd.org/naspe also has Observences and gives ideas for instant activities and lessons for each month.
