  2. Candy and Soda SHOULD be banned from schools because junk food could damage health, school should be an overall physical healthy place to be, and schools should prevent obesity!

  7. School should be an overall physical healthy place to be! • Getting good nutrients in school can produce strong minds. • Eating good in school could produce strong bodies. • Surrounding children with healthier will make them eat better.

  9. Schools should prevent obesity! • Drinking sugary drinks and eating junk food could make one become obese. • Once you set a snacking behavior that makes you obese it could make you gain weight when older.  • Obesity could affect our economy.

  10. An Opposing Point-of-View: Junk food could be bought to help students stay alert. Rebuttal: If students just eat a breakfast instead of junk food they could also stay alert.

  11. What Can You Do? • You could model healthy eating by going around the community or school eating healthy because your not too young nor too old , so the children will most likely follow your footsteps. • You could write a letter to the school or board of education to help influence kids with healthier eating habits.
