The focus of the Food & Nutrition 1 (Food & Fitness) class is to provide understanding about the principles of nutrition and a healthy lifestyle. I have adopted the philosophy, “Experience is Necessary”. As we cover the subject areas: Kitchen Management & Sanitation, Food Guide Pyramid & Dietary Guidelines, Food Preparation, and Nutrients, I want students to have “hands-on” experiences that will further their knowledge and growth of Food and Nutrition.

Students will be expected to: Think of this place as your job. What is expected and

acceptable on the job is the same for this class.

FIRST EXPECTATION = print off and sign the disclosure statement and human sexuality formFoods and Nutrition 1 Blog and Disclosure

Class will include: daily reflections, children’s book and song evaluations, speakers, assignments, tests, child care experiences, observations, projects, group work, a NOTEBOOK, and CTE state competency test

Each student will come to class prepared with paper, writing utensil and a class notebook. I will not supply these.

Students are responsible for all information and work presented in class whether here or not.

Check assignment board often for assignments, due dates, and personal progress

There is a $_________ class fee - covers cost of extra experiences. Worth ________________ points. If this is not paid, you will have an “F”.

GET INVOLVED! This class is not a student lounge. When

you are here you will participate, work, learn, and have fun. If lounging about is more appealing than participating, I encourage you to find a lounging class.

Your paycheck for this class will be the grade that you receive. Just as you don’t receive money for not working, the same applies in class. Your grade is your choice.

Limited extra credit will be given for those who are all caught up with assignments, please do not ask for it.

Becoming a member of FCCLA, doing well on your state final, and hanging onto your vouchers.

Grading is as follows: See RUBRIC 93 - 100 A 90 - 92 A- 87 - 89 B+ 83 - 86 B 80 - 82 B- 77 - 79 C+ 73 - 76 C 70 - 72 C- 67 - 69 D+ 63 - 66 D 60 - 62 D - 59 - 0 F

Since most of the learning and assignments take place in class, attendance is a necessity

The school attendance policy will be followed

Make-up work will be given for excused absences. Students have until the next EO hour ends to make up work.

10% penalty for all make-up and late work –whether excused or not.A voucher must be attached to all make-up / late work or it will not be accepted.

Missed class? Visit the my class blog or online classroom.

Due to the numerous hands on experiences, group work, and activities done in class, it is necessary for each student to remain in control of and be responsible for their actions and talking.

First 5 minutes of class are for roll and bell quiz. Last 5 minutes are set aside for questions and handing in late or make-up work.

*YELLOW* tell a hobby you enjoy doing *BLUE* tell about your favorite

restaurant and why *ORANGE* tell about your favorite food *RED* tell about your favorite movie and

why *BROWN* tell about your favorite thing

to do on during the summer *GREEN* tell what you are excited for this

year at Northridge High

Students are expected to be on time

So as not to get marked absent, LATE students are to sign the tardy sheet before going to their seat.

More than 15 minutes late equals an absent.

A voucher can cancel out a tardy

To be considered on time, work is to be handed in at the beginning of class or when called for.

Make PRIOR arrangements or provide Pre-notification if you know you will be absent because work is still due on the due date/final acceptance date whether you are here or not.

Late work will be accepted until the date of final acceptance for the unit.

A 10% penalty will be enforced upon all late/make-up work whether excused or not.A voucher must be attached to all late work and make-up work or it will not be accepted.

Each student will receive 4 assignment VOUCHERS per quarter. This can be used for hall passes, tardies, 2 make-up or late work, or saved for 5 extra credit points each at the end of the quarter.

No sloppy, untidy, no-name, or otherwise substandard work

will be graded.

Demonstrate proper measuring & preparation techniques

Demonstrate kitchen safety procedures Demonstrate sanitation techniques Evaluate a personal dietary intake according

to dietary guidelines & FGP Prepare a complex carbohydrate food product Prepare a protein food product Prepare a vitamin or mineral food product

School rules and procedures will be followed and enforced.Dress code, electronic devices, ID tags…..

Outside food and drink are only to be brought to class on Food Day Fridays.

Citizenship will be marked as follows “H” can be earned by students who are considerate of

others, helpful, interested, follow class rules, are responsible, high percentage, and promote the success of the class.

“S” can be earned by students who follow class rules, are not disruptive, medium percentage, and have no more than 2 tardies/absences.

“N” will be given for inappropriate or disruptive behavior, for less than full effort, low percentages, and 4 tardies/absences

“U” will be given for beyond inappropriate or disruptive behavior, cheating or helping to cheat, and for 5 or more tardies/absences.

► Due To recent concern regarding the Family Education Right to Privacy Act (FERPA), I am letting you know that the student’s assignments might be corrected by other students, under the direction of the teacher. Students are advised that confidentiality and honesty are of the utmost importance. Any violation of such will be dealt with administratively.

The attached Human Sexuality consent form must be signed by yourself and your parent/guardian, regardless of your age, before you can participate in human sexuality instruction, Baby Think it Over, and the State competency test.

I have read and understood this disclosure statement and, even though I may not agree with it, I will comply with all of the requirements and policies.
