"WHO AM I?"

Divide the class into teams, and let them compete with each other for points earned in the game. The questions are asked to each team alternately. There may be more than one correct answer to a question. If it is correct, the team gets one point. If a team fails to answer the question correctly, the same question goes to the opposing team. The game ends when one team earns 10 points. Choose one child to be the first to select a nutrition question (see Who Am I Cards on the following pages). If a child answers the question correctly, he/she trades places with the child asking the question. An option you may wish to use which helps the children be less afraid to participate is to let them play "bluff". In this version of the game, the child may name the correct food of bluff and say the wrong answer. This way if a child gives an incorrect answer, the teacher can simply pretend it was a bluff rather than a wrong answer. If the children in the class agree with the answers, they stand up. If they disagree they remain seated.
