Give guidance and feedback to students' plans, encouraging, refining, and helping them to be responsible for their own learning. Maintain high expectations for completion of chosen options. Summarize by reviewing the whole, bringing students "full circle" to the experience with which the learning began.

Apply what they have learned.

Objective: The students will apply the mastered content by creating a nutritionally sound school lunch menu, for 1 week, which meets the parameters and regulations of a public school lunch program.

Activity: By this stage, the students should have all the skills necessary to apply what they have learned. I assign the students the task of designing a school lunch program for one week. The menus must address the nutritional needs of the students while providing alternative suggestions ( for vegetarians as an example.)
I divide the students into teams. I inform the students that each team will present their proposed luncheon plan to the entire class and must be able to point out the merits of their plan. Once all teams have presented their plans, the floor will be open for discussion. The final step will require all the students to cast one vote for the best nutritional plan. The plan receiving the most votes will be foundations for the second phase of the project.
