Then when your done, have them sit on the floor with their charts. Ask them: What do you think helps you grow most? Then say veges(they raise their hands), Fruit(they raise their hands), milk(they raise their hands) or all of them? Who ever gets the anwser give them a prize. Since the rest of the class will be sad give them some 2. Say who ever gussed right gets 3 jolly ranchers and everyone else gets 1 jolly rancher. Then fill in your chart on the board.
