Abstract
Nutrition instruction is integral to the balanced education of children. In the Seventh-day Adventist school system in Ontario, instruction in this subject has been inconsistent historically. In order to start addressing this inconsistency, this project pursued the development, implementation, and assessment of a nutrition curriculum unit for grades 9-12 in Seventh-day Adventist schools in Ontario. It was developed and tested at Crawford Adventist Academy in Toronto. The curriculum objectives were that students would understand the contribution of nutrition to optimal health, identify and access trustworthy nutrition resources, link nutrition principles to personal Christian stewardship, and honour God by making consistent, healthy nutrition choices that would result in behavioural change.
