Nutrition (open to students)

[Rose Hoff]

Rose looked up in surprise when Cara commented on how she used the pencils belonging to the teacher. She responded quietly, I try not to. But this project is not worth my good pencils, and I'll sanitize thoroughly later." She watched at the girl took the plate and nodded when she changed the third section. When Cara claimed the fruit and vegetables section for herself, Rose pressed her lips together. She'd have to choose between the Grains, or the Dairy, Sugars, and Meat. The thought of illustrating meat and fatty foods made her stomach churn, so she quickly noted, I'll draw the grains" She wasn't thrilled about doing those either, but it was better than the other option.

Rose took the plate when Cara had finished her section and quickly looked over the work. It was very good, and frankly, Rose was impressed. She first labeled the lip Grain Products in blue pen to match Cara's section, and then took a pencil and started to sketch out various grain products: a loaf of bread, some potatoes, a plate of pasta, a bowl of rice, some crackers and a box of cereal. Once she'd sketched them out, she darkened the lines in pen and shaded with the pencil a bit before lightly shading colors in with the colored pencils. She had to mix a few colors due to the lack of variety of brown and beige in the school's pencils, but it came out looking rather nice.

Looking up, she saw that a girl had joined them while she'd been very intently drawing. Blushing, she greeted her, "Hello, I'm Rose." She nodded towards the plate, "Cara and I completed the Produce and Grains sections. You're welcome to do the last third, which is actually three sections..." she trailed off, realizing that the girl probably had already known this, and she shouldn't explain further. Looking down at her hands, she folded them together, twisting her knuckles between her fingers.

[Keri Rocha]

Keri sat at her chair not touching anything, since she had already finished her part of the food pie chart, the grains, dairy, and fats, leaving the other parts for Sam. She let herself zone out, not wanting to talk to anyone, though she was surrounded by her friends, whom she should want to talk to. Her mind jumped back home, wondering how each of the horses she'd been working with were doing either back at their barn or with their new owners. She almost smiled at the thought of them, her babies, and how much she loved them all. She missed them; probably more than she would ever know.

She then remembered why she had come here to Blue Ridge, and left those wonderful animals behind and rolled her eyes, not wanting to think about it. That awful woman who couldn't see past her own nose always trying to control her life, kind of like these teachers seemed to be doing now by sending her to this Nutrition class, but then again, was it really the teachers, or could it have been someone else? Almost the entire gymnastics team was sitting around her in the room, and she couldn't help but wonder if maybe their coach had sent them all here. That seemed like something he'd do, make his team take an extra class to make sure they were all prepared and at their best for the meets. As if.

Starboard, Keri would be working with Sam (Aishe did say she wanted them to work in pairs), so you might need to change your post and put down what part of the pie chart she did and what she's leaving for Sam to do.
